US Grade 4 - 6
Are you interested in helping your learner boost their vocabulary and strengthen reading skills at the same time? Come explore this weekly ongoing class to improve your learner's vocabulary, using Wordly Wise Book 5. Each week we will meet to learn new words as outlined in the book. There are 15 words per lesson and we will focus on gaining the meaning of those words through context clues, affixes, parts of speech, etc. I love to engage learners with a variety of activities and games to make the learning process fun and help them remember the words! We also will explore reading passages to help us be word detectives as we hunt for our new words and further strengthen our understanding of the words. Please see the list of passage titles at the end of the course description. As a licensed teacher with almost 20 years of experience, I try to help students make connections with the words and find helpful ways to remember their meanings. Homework will be an optional activity for families who wish their learner to complete additional work with the weekly words. I am happy to review and check any complete assessment after our weekly class. Feedback with be provided to the family via the Outschool message platform. I hope you are ready to love words as much as I do! All weeks will follow a similar routine/structure for the class and the class structure and dates are listed below. Class structure - introduce words - investigate word origins, roots, and/or parts of speech - activity that allows learners to practice using the word through reading and/or writing *Activities may include but are not limited to fill in the blank, guess my word, word puzzles, illustrate the word, sentence writing, concept maps, etc. - exit ticket: teacher will assess students understanding of newly introduced words - assignment: optional activity for further study of the weekly words Week 1 - Friends for Life Week 2 - When Money Grows on Trees Week 3 - The Last Dinosaurs Week 4 - A Difficult Journey Week 5 - On Top of the World (Mount Everest) Week 6 - The Pen is Mightier Than the Sword Week 7 - Birds in Tuxedos (Penguins) Week 8 - The First Thanksgiving Week 9 - The Sky's the Limit *More weeks to post for early 2024 It is recommended students have a copy (paper or digital) of Wordly Wise, book 5, (4th edition) but not required. If you do not see a section conducive to your schedule, please let me know. I am happy to work with families on setting up new sections when possible. Additionally, if you are interested in other levels, please see my Book 2, Book 3, and Book 4 class.
