Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 2
Welcome to my engaging online reading class designed specifically for kindergarten, grade 1, and grade 2 students! Join me on a journey of literacy as we explore the fascinating world of word families. Word families, such as -all, -am, and -ap, provide a foundation for young learners to recognize patterns in words, enhancing their reading skills and boosting their confidence. Through interactive activities, games, and exercises, students will develop their phonics knowledge and decoding abilities, unlocking the door to a lifetime of reading success. Enroll now and watch your child's reading abilities flourish!

Class breakdown: 
2-5 Minutes - Welcome, Hello, How was your week?
5-10 Minutes - Introduction to the word family of the week and brainstorming words that have those endings. 
5-10 Minutes - Looking at the word family list that I've created and copy it down. Drawing a picture of one or two (time permitted). 
2-5 Minutes - Play a game while reading the words practiced during this class.

These word families can be helpful for teaching phonics and building vocabulary skills. Students will practice writing and reading words that are connected to a word family each class. Learners will have a collection of word families in their notebooks to read and practice. Students can practice their words offline and learn to read and write by using the words that they have learned in class.
Learning Goals
The learning goal is for students to learn to read by blending letter sounds together.
