Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 4
This five week class will teach your child about Vowel-Consonant-E Syllables. (Also known as "Magic E")  Each week two videos will be available and include short assignments to reinforce learning. I will be available the entire month to answer any questions your child might have and to provide feedback and encouragement. I will respond to any messages you or your child sends me as quickly as possible, usually the same day.

Practice beginning reading and spelling skills! Each day will focus on one specific phonics pattern (Vowel-consonant-e syllables) and provide ample opportunities for practice by solving riddles, using blending boards, and playing  games to reinforce both reading and spelling. Silent e at the end of a word is often called "Magic E" because it gives all of its power to the vowel in the syllable.  This class will begin with phonological awareness activities that have been proven to be crucial for reading development. My dyslexia specialist training, which is Orton-Gillingham based, is not only beneficial for dyslexic students but for any struggling or beginning reader. My main goal is for each student to leave feeling more confident in their reading!  I've witnessed time and time again that the more confident a child becomes, the faster reading growth occurs. (Cookie the Pug dog will also make appearances!).  

Go through each lesson in one sitting or do a little bit each day, it's up to you and what is best for your child. I also give supplemental resources on the targeted phonics skill to complete throughout the week if you so desire.  This course is ideal for preventing the "summer slide" that often occurs when students don't refresh their skills during the summer.   I will be available via email to answer any questions that you may have as a parent. I'm thrilled to be providing this resource for parents! 

Striving to add an element of entertainment to reading class, my pug dog Cookie will be a regular visitor during our sessions. Many of my students' parents tell me that their child can't wait to log on to see what costume Cookie will be dressed in that day! (The best part is the stoic look on his face regardless of the outfit! Haha) 

I will also provide assignments for your student to complete and turn in to me if you would like that to be a part of the class.

This class will inlcude A-E, E-E, I-E, O-E, and U-E.

Learning Goals

This five week class will teach your child A-E, E-E, I-E, O-E, and U-E.  By the end of the class, your child should be able to read and spell one syllable Vowel-Consonant-E words.
