In this class, we will learn some simple grammar rules, and practice writing sentences and paragraphs. We will use concrete examples, such as pictures of familiar things, that the learners will find fun and relatable. Learners will be encouraged to submit photos of family members, pets, friends, and familiar places. (See welcome letter for details.) We will start with a warm up activity, such as a song about parts of speech or complete sentences. After the warm up, we will have a “Show and Tell” time to present our homework. (This is optional, but encouraged.) During every class, we will use a slide presentation to spark a class discussion. We will use strategies such as brainstorming or completing a graphic organizer to get our ideas flowing. For example, we might see a picture of an animal, such as a panda. The learners will take turns describing the panda, what it is doing, etc. while I type their responses onto the slide. I will ask questions as needed to draw out the details. Next, we will take their words and phrases and practice putting them into complete sentences. I will provide sentence starters and ask questions as needed to help the learners craft meaningful sentences. As time allows, we will put the sentences together into paragraphs, while discussing spacing, capitalization, punctuation, and more. After class, the learners will receive a copy of the slideshow. For homework, they will copy the paragraphs we wrote together. I will also include some “sentence starters” for them to continue the story, if they choose. At the next class, the learners will have the opportunity to show their work.

保護者へのお知らせ
Our class will cover a variety of topics such as home, family, pets, entertainment, and more. If your child has any specific fears, such as clowns or dogs, please kindly message me through Outschool to let me know. Additionally, if your learner or family does not eat certain kinds of foods (pork, candy, etc.), or does not celebrate certain holidays, please let me know so I can tailor the class content accordingly.
I will use presentations that I have created on Canva. Sometimes, I will send links for the parents and learners to view at home; no account will be needed.
受講の前提条件
Learners should be able to read and copy down simple sentences, e.g. "I see an animal wearing a costume." (Lexile 160L-310L, Grade 1) For examples, see: readinga-z.com/books/leveled-books (click on "D"). Parent support is encouraged.
受講に必要なもの
Your learner will need: PAPER A notebook or lined looseleaf paper (kept in a folder) with lines that are spaced appropriately for your learner's handwriting. If your learner writes with very big letters and enjoys drawing a picture to accompany his writing, you might choose a "Primary Journal/Primary Story Journal," such as this: https://www.amazon.com/Oxford-Primary-Composition-Notebooks-Handwriting/dp/B0B7V6F2RX/ For learners who are used to writing on wide-ruled paper, this is a good option: https://www.amazon.com/Oxford-Composition-Notebooks-Inches-63773/dp/B09RYX11S5/ Personally, I like the above notebooks because they are smaller. With fewer lines to "fill up," it's much less intimidating for a beginning writer. WRITING TOOL OF CHOICE Your child can use any writing tool (pen, pencil, etc.) as long as it is erasable and makes a dark mark (this makes it easier for me to read when they hold it up to the camera). Learners who have sensory issues and don't like the "scratchy" feel of a pencil may enjoy Frixion brand pens. (They are AMAZING and erase perfectly! However, be warned that the ink can disappear when exposed to high heat.) OTHER Occasionally, your child may be asked to bring a favorite toy or other item to class. Please make sure your notification settings are set up to receive class emails. Also, in the welcome letter, you will be asked to send photos of your child, as well as of loved ones and pets. This will help me to personalize the class content for each child. If you forget, please don't let that prevent your learner from attending; I will adapt the lesson so they can fully participate!

During my Master’s in Elementary Education with Reading Specialist endorsement program, I had many classes which addressed special needs and individual differences, as well as how to adapt curricula and lessons to meet those needs. I am a National Writing Project fellow (‘96-’97), in which I learned and practiced a variety of strategies for teaching writing to students with intellectual disabilities. I have been teaching learners with special needs for 31 years. I have helped learners improve their knowledge and usage of grammar, as well as their syntax. For example, in answering “What did you do yesterday?”, one learner initially gave responses such as, “Did you go to the store” and “[Name] likes hamburger French fries.” After tutoring, the learner consistently responds with appropriate answers, such as, “I went to the store with Mommy. I bought a puzzle.” I have also had much success with encouraging preverbal learners to speak and even answer simple questions.
