Is your learner ready to move past matching letters and sounds to reading words?

Are sight words that are spelled irregularly a struggle for your learner? 

Is your learner reading single-syllable words, but struggling with multi-syllable words?

I use the science of reading to teach strategies that allow learners to identify the seven different types of syllables. 

Decoding words to determine pronunciation is half of becoming a fluent reader, the other half is understanding word meaning for comprehension.
 
1. Class begins with an introduction of the skill for the lesson.  
2. Tap a sound and letter chart to practice the new skill. (Learners will receive a handout to use at home for practice too.)
3. Write and say the skill for the week, such as, "The letter A says  /a/."
4. Arm spell several words using the new sound pattern.
5. Practice reading words and phrases with the new sound pattern.

 As learners are successful we move on to longer words during class. 

Learners will use teacher-created handouts to complete activities each week. 

Learners may also choose to use alphabet letters, whiteboards, and pop-its as part of their supplies.
