Campamento de vocabulario de verano con Wordly Wise Kindergarten

This six-week multi-day course will provide direct instruction in vocabulary, which is the cornerstone of reading comprehension. I plan to make this class experience a great one by developing a relationship with each child. The students will be learning the words orally.  Children can listen and learn far more than they can actually read themselves.  The students will greatly improve their vocabulary base by learning the vocabulary words from Wordly Wise Voabulary for Kindergarten.  (Book K) There are ten words in each of the twelve lessons in the book.  This class will last six weeks. We will cover the four units in book, having twelve lessons, in this six-week course.   The words will be explained by the teacher, using colorful picture cards for each of the ten words. Each word has a colorful picture card to help students understand the meaning of the word.   The teacher and the learners will discuss what the word means and how it relates to them.  Practice will be provided by using five approaches: finding the meaning using whatever part of speech, using context clues to find just the right word in the sentence, applying the meaning of the word, using the correct form of the word, then reading a narrative using the ten words in the lesson.  Each lesson includes a fiction narrative of high interest.  My learning style is informal with lots of smiles and student interaction. I want to have an fun and enriched classroom environment.  I hope to get many eager learners!
The parents who have enrolled their children in my courses are happy!  

Multi-day course: Weekly class routine: Two days per week
