Campamento de práctica continua de fonética y ortografía (2 veces por semana)

This is an ongoing class where a new spelling and/or phonics rule will be taught each week.  The class will begin with a short lesson on the skill for the day.  Then, students will practice spelling and reading words that follow that rule.  These classes do not necessarily build upon one another.  You can miss a class and still be successful with the skill for that day since a new skill is taught each week.  Students will practice the new skill through an interactive lesson, video clips, hands-on activities, and repetition.  These activities may include spelling words on phoneme boards (or boxes), reading sentences and finding the correct word (based on the similar spellings) to complete the sentence, spelling words seen in pictures, reading words and determining if the word matches the picture, etc. all while applying the knowledge of the skill that was taught.

Here is a breakdown of the first few weeks of this ongoing class....specific dates are listed below.
Week 1
  -short and long vowel rule
Week 2
 -CVC to CVCe words 
Week 3

During my 23 years as an elementary teacher, my favorite thing to teach was reading and spelling.  I discovered several strategies that were very successful with helping students be great readers and spellers.  I will use those strategies in this class. 

**If your child is not familiar with vowels and the short and long vowel rules, you may want to take one of my one time classes first so that you understand the vowel rules that will be used in every class.
