Fonética de primer grado con la Sra. Katelynn en curso

Welcome to First Grade Phonics with Ms. Katelynn! In this three times a week class learners will build upon their Kindergarten phonics knowledge and become confident beginning readers. Each week we will work on phonemic awareness or the ability to think about and work with individual sounds (phonemes) in spoken words by blending sounds into words and segmenting words into sounds. We will do visual and auditory drills to ensure that each learner can match graphemes (a letter or group of letters used to represent a sound) with their phonemes and vice versa. Learners will practice reading words in isolation as well as in sentences and short stories, practice writing and spelling words that match our phonics skill for the day, and learn irregular words, also known as high frequency words, each week through orthographic mapping. This means that learners will be pointed to the irregular part(s) of the word and discuss the unexpected grapheme-phoneme correspondences. This will ensure mastery of irregular words. A typical week will look as follows:
