Lectura, ortografía y lengua y literatura de segundo grado: Sesión 2

If you're looking for an all-in-one reading, spelling, and language arts class for your second grade level child, look no further!  This course has it all!  

We will continue using spelling and language arts texts from the Spectrum series along with the Spectrum Reading workbook which will allow us to focus more intensely on reading comprehension skills.  Our focus for this session will be ending blends mp, ng, and sk, long vowels, and beginning blends fr, and br. We will begin each class with a review of that week's spelling words.  Students will complete a Spectrum page for homework to support their mastery.  

We will then read a text from the Spectrum Reading book  with a focus on vocabulary, decoding, and comprehension skills.  We will discuss things like fact and opinion, story sequencing, cause and effect, and finding information in text. 

We will end with a language arts lesson and complete a Spectrum page with that as well.  I will supplemWe will enrich each lesson with games, discussion, and both guided and independent practice.   

I have used this approach with my students and have seen them make amazing progress!  They learn to love reading and writing and begin to develop confidence in their abilities to do so.  The stories and other texts spark great discussions, thus strengthening their speaking skills and expanding their vocabulary at the same time!  My focus on comprehension skills such as context clues, re-telling, story elements such as setting, characters, plot, and non-fiction text features helps them learn to look at a text both in part and as a whole.  

Aligned with most state standards, this course will help your emergent reader SHINE!
