우주인을 위한 시각 단어: Mission Venus

This ongoing class will help your young astronaut learn new sight words each week to develop their independent reading skills. Each class will incorporate opportunities to practice sight words through movement, songs, games, and hands-on activities that make words stick. Weekly sessions will be highly interactive while keeping students engaged in a small-group setting with peers. In order to benefit from this course, learners should already be able to recognize and name the letters of the alphabet.

This class will incorporate an optional worksheet each week. A blank piece of paper or white board can do if you do if you're unable to print. Learners will be provided with optional practice materials after each class to continue their learning. 

Sight words (also referred to as high-frequency words) are a crucial component of any readers literacy skills. These words appear frequently in texts, but are irregular and can't easily be sounded out. By learning to recognize these words quickly (at first sight) learners improve their reading fluency and free up their brainpower to decode other words within a text. 

This ongoing course will help learners complete Mission Venus, the second in a series of missions to planets in our solar system (see below). Mission Venus blasts through the second 20 words on the Fry word list. Class each week will explicitly teach 2-3 words. 

Upcoming classes include-
Week of Nov 1- words, not
Week of Nov 8- what, when
Week of Nov 15- all, were, we
Week of Nov 22- your, can, said
Week of Nov 29- No Class
Week of Dec 6- at, be
Week of Dec 13- No Class
Week of Dec 20- No Class
Week of Dec 29- No Class

Once your learner accomplishes Mission Venus (mastering Fry's second 20 words), they may choose to join one of the following ongoing sight-word classes in order to complete Fry's first 100 words. 

Mission Mars- there, use, an, each, which, she, do, how, their, if, will, up, other, about, out, many, then, them, these, so

Mission Jupiter- some, her, would, make, like, him, into, time, has, look, two, more, write, go, see, number, no, way, could, people

Please note, Mission Mercury covers Fry's first 20 words. You may choose to start here depending on your learner's current sight word knowledge. 

I am happy to help you in assessing your learner's sight word knowledge to determine the best fit.
