Homework
1 hour per week. The student should be reading each night for a minimum of 25 minutes. "Ear reading" with programs like Learning Ally, Bookshare, and Audible all count as reading. Your child will also benefit from hearing you model fluent reading. I will occasionally assign passages for oral reading as repeated practice. It is helpful if a family member can listen to the child read and provide feedback.Assessment
Students will be assessed through Mastery Checks and other informal, ongoing teacher assessments.Class Experience
US Grade 2 - 5
My teaching style is MULTISENSORY, DIAGNOSTIC, and PRESCRIPTIVE. I will quickly review the skills your child has mastered and target my instruction to your child's individual needs. I will teach using flashcards, Google Slides, worksheets, games, and decodable texts. Topics will include: 1) Phonemic and Phonological Awareness, 2) Six Syllable Types, 3) Syllable Division, 4) Spelling Rules and Common Orthographic Patterns, 5) Oral Reading Fluency Practice, 6) Vocabulary/Comprehension Strategies, 7) Multisensory Grammar/Writing WEEK 1: I will administer a decoding survey to determine specific areas of strengths and weaknesses. I will also administer an oral reading check to determine the reading level and the number of words the student reads per minute. Finally, a spelling check will be administered to determine areas of strengths and weaknesses. WEEK 2: WHAT IS A VOWEL? Vowel coding(breve), Phonology Practice, Spelling Practice WEEK 3: WHAT IS A CONSONANT? Cursive(optional) Phonology Practice, Spelling Practice, Clipped vs. Continuant Sounds WEEK 4: WHAT IS A SYLLABLE? Phonology Practice
