Welcome to the Safari! Join us as we explore new animals and practice reading 4-letter short vowel words with blends, such as "fast", "tent" and "help". First we will practice blending individual sounds into words with a few fun animal facts thrown in. Then we will use those phonemic awareness skills to sound out real words and play a matching game. The class will use google slides and includes a printable follow-up sheet for extra practice. Students will be most successful in this class if they already know all of the letter names, letter sounds and be able to read simple 3-letter words.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to blend sounds together and sound-out four letter words.

Supply List

I have my Masters of Education with certificates in effective teaching of reading as well as mild to moderate learning disabilities. I am a trained Orton Gillingham teacher, which is a multi I am also passionate about challenging students to develop a growth mindset and try difficult things. When I am not teaching or caring for my family, I am learning something new myself- how to paint with watercolors! I have not taken an art class since middle school, so it's been a big learning curve for me, but I'm enjoying it immensely.
