US Grade Preschool - Kindergarten
We will use recognizable images of the blocky Minecraft animals to focus on letter sounds, phonics, and word building with CVC word families. Each student will get a chance to speak and to sound out and read the CVC words with gentle guidance. They will enjoy learning to read the Minecraft animal names together and we will sing a special song. We will also play a fun game of memory at the end of class where the students will try to find a match. The younger students will love it! Students can bring a Minecraft-related plush toy, characters, or other toys to class, as they will each have a chance to show and tell at the beginning of class.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their phonics skills through word-building, reading CVC words, singing songs, playing an interactive game, and talking about their favorite Minecraft animals! Good for both native English speakers and ESL learners.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am married with an eleven year old, and we live in North Carolina. We love being outdoors as a family, and we are very lucky to split our time between the beautiful coast and mountains of our state.
I love reading with children, and I specialize in phonics, letter sounds, word-building, and sounding out words with young readers. This helps beginning readers learn to read quickly and independently! My son was reading well before entering kindergarten. I loved volunteering weekly in both his kindergarten and first grade classrooms. I have a B.A. in English from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and I also earned a TESOL certificate from International Open Academy. I have been teaching children as young as three years old online for over 6 years. It is my passion! I look forward to seeing you in the classroom!Reviews
