La fonética en foco con la práctica de comprensión lectora

** Now updated to include reading comprehension stories each week!**

One of the best ways to succeed in school is to improve reading skills... want to know how? Phonics! When phonics is taught systematically, as in this class, students gain confidence as their ability to sound out words increases. With an increased knowledge of phonics, students increase the speed of sound to symbol recognition. Then students are able to apply their new skills to read new words which encourages them to experience new vocabulary. 

In each class, I will introduce students to new phonograms. Then, we will practice the phonograms in words and sentences. Students will interact with their classmates as they brainstorm words with the phonograms to complete graphic organizers. We will have fun playing games to practice what we have learned. I will provide an encouraging environment where students can share their opinions and reach their potential. 

This class is for students who are familiar with the letters A-Z and the single letter sounds. In this class, we will move beyond single letter sounds to multi-letter phonograms and help solve the mystery of "sounding out words".
