16 live meetings
12 in-class hours

1 hour per week. Students should practice building with tiles and writing the words posted in the classroom for review.
Assessment
Phonogram cards, sound cards, key cards, and word cards will be reviewed weekly to determine mastery. Mastery will be evaluated when students write words, phrases, and sentences with the phonograms that have been taught.

Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 4
All About Spelling uses multisensory learning. Kinesthetic learning includes building words with letter tiles, finger spelling on surfaces, and writing words, phrases, and sentences. Visual learning includes watching direct instruction of spelling concepts with the colored tiles, seeing the words written down, and looking at the review cards. Auditory learning includes verbally reviewing the review cards, segmenting words out loud, and saying the phonogram's sound as it is written. 

Each week I will incorporate the following activities:
1. Review phonogram cards, sound cards, key cards, and word cards.
2. Introduce a new spelling concept through direct modeling with the tiles followed by guided practice with the tiles, independent practice in writing, and application in writing in a word or sentence. 
3. Analyze a given word based on previously learned spelling concepts and phonograms.
4. Assess your child's progress through their understanding of review cards and demonstration of the spelling concept in writing.


Writing can be done on their board with a dry erase marker or by typing in the chat. At the end of each section, students will spell words with partners in breakout rooms while I individually assess the phonogram, sound, key, and word cards.

In level three part one your student will learn ways to spell long A, the fourth and fifth job of silent E, and about pickle syllables.

Learning Goals

Students will learn the phonograms AI and AY and when to use them.
Students will understand that the fourth job of silent E is to prevent a singular word from looking like it is plural.

2. If you purchase the physical letter tiles, you will need a large magnetic white board and a dry erase marker. The magnetic whiteboard is so that students can easily hold up the words they make for me to see. If you purchase the letter tiles app, a small white board and marker is needed.

3. Students must purchase the spelling activity book for level three. This will be used for four classes. https://www.allaboutlearningpress.com/all-about-spelling-level-3-activity-book/
