1:1 Continuo Una vez a la semana: descifre el código de la lectura

This ongoing class is a continuation of my one-time class (with the same title) that allows me to analyze an assessment and plan individualized instruction. If you are interested in this class, please contact me for more information. I do not schedule this class for public enrollment.  

These classes are based on the simple view of reading.
 The Simple View  of Reading is:
                 Decoding (D) x Language Comprehension (LC) = Reading Comprehension (RC)

In this course, I will start building the bridge to reading comprehension by focusing on the basics of decoding.  After analysis of the previous assessment and class performance, I will create an instructional plan appropriate for the learner.  This plan will follow a scope and sequence that allows the learner to master reading and spelling the 6 syllable types in single and multi syllable words. 

As learners work through the 6 syllable types(D), they will also be introduced to high frequency words (HFW) that look like they should follow the syllable patterns, but break the syllable rules.  They will be given strategies to help remember these words. Once students have learned a new syllable type, they will be expected to go on a word hunt in their favorite books and bring to class and share. The student will read the sentence or 2 with the word in it (LC) and tell me about what is happening in their book. (RC).  This will help transfer their decoding skills to real life reading.

Format for the classes (always subject to change depending on the learner)
* Warm up activity  -review of a skill, student sharing homework, or a phonemic awareness activity
* Introduce a new or expand on a previous syllable type or skill
* Practice the new syllable in reading single and multi syllable words 
* Reading passages with the targeted syllable type or skill to promote fluency.(this will not be in every class)
* Practice High Frequency Words (HFW) that are rule breaker for a syllable generalization (this will not be in every class)
* Practice spelling words (single, multi syllable and HFW) though dictation. 

All documents will be provided for printing prior to each class. Please be sure to print off any materials before class starts. 

Your child will also need a white broad, marker, and eraser.  These tools will be used in almost every class as a means to interact and provide feedback to me so I can gauge their learning and help pace the class.   Please have these ready to use at any time.
