Students will learn the foundational skills of blending simple two-letter combinations, while exercising their "symbol imagery" (visual memory.) This class will meet twice weekly for one hour each class. I will help your child set a firm foundation to be able to build up to cvc (consonant - vowel - consonant) words. For students who would like to continue to grow in their reading skills, follow up classes will be offered.

Students will learn:
* All consonant sounds
* All short vowel sounds
* Rules for long vowel sounds (ex: oa, ea, ai, ie, "silent-E" rule, etc)
* Rules for other vowel blends (ex: oy, oi, ow, au, aw, au)
* Blending 2 letter sounds (ex: if, in, as, on, at, etc)

THIS LEVEL TARGETS READERS WHO ARE STRUGGLING WITH THE IDEA AND PROCESS OF BLENDING. IF YOUR READER IS ALREADY READING SINGLE SYLLABLE WORDS AND SENTENCES, PLEASE CONSIDER A HIGHER LEVEL CLASS.

As a special education teacher for 20 years, I have been using the Lindamood Bell techniques for decoding, comprehension, and math. This class will use the "Seeing Stars" program which focuses on decoding skills. The Lindamood Bell method combines auditory, visual, and language skills for a comprehensive approach for the struggling learner.
