Homework
1 hour per week. After each lesson, they are asked to complete a quick workbook page on the letter we learned. This can be completed very quickly. There will also be extra games, workbook activities, and multi-sensory activities that you can print and play with your child to help them master their letter names and sounds. The independent practice piece after each lesson and the games will be the key to helping them achieve mastery, however how much time you spend on the activities is totally up to you!
Assessment
After every five letters, there will be an assessment to track their ability to name the upper and lowercase letters, and their sounds, and write the upper and lowercase letters for the set of five. You do not have to complete these assessments but it is highly recommended so you can track your child's progress to guide them to mastery.

Class Experience

Beginner Level
Embark on a thrilling literacy adventure with our detective-themed course designed exclusively for your child! Each lesson will have a pre-recorded video of me! We will go on adventures for each letter so that we can solve my cities biggest mystery.. Where did all my letters go? We will sing songs, dance, and learn our letters. 

Our curriculum focuses on crucial literacy skills including phonological awareness, letter names and sounds, writing letters, differentiating between upper and lowercase letters and reading two-letter words. Each lesson is meticulously crafted to ensure your child's mastery of these skills, with an accompanying 250-page PDF with practice pages, games, and bonus activities provided for extended learning. If your child is going to master these skills they need to work on their letters outside of the course. The games, workbook activities, and multi-sensory activities are for you to practice these skills with your child so they can master these skills and have fun!

After every five letters, they'll encounter assessments where they can earn their coveted mastery glasses, bringing them one step closer to obtaining their Level 1 Detective Certificate! These assessments will be administered by you. When administering the assessments don't help them too much, simply read the instructions, and see what they know. This will help you determine what letters they still need to work on to gain mastery.

Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to ignite your child's passion for reading while honing essential literacy skills in a fun and dynamic way.
