This class is engaging to young learners through hands-on multi-sensory activities.  This research based approach teaches kids the prerequisite literacy skills to master reading.  

he class uses the curriculum from Neuhaus Education Center, Reading Readiness Skills and is structured in five parts: 

 Letter Recognition 
 Phonological Awareness 
 Oral Language 
 Multi-sensory Letter Introduction
 Handwriting  

Skills are taught explicitly and are the basics for a child to learn to read independently. Students use plastic letters to understand the alphabet.  They manipulate sentences and words to build their phonological awareness. Vocabulary is strengthened through oral language activities, and multi-sensory strategies are used to learn correct formation of letters to refine handwriting.  This class is engaging to young learners through hands-on multi-sensory activities.  This research based approach teaches kids the prerequisite literacy skills to master reading.  

This is phase I of an established approach that has proven results. They will be moving through the process over the course of the semester and should register for phase II following completion.  Here is a sample of the schedule each day.  The curriculum starts out very easy and moves very quickly.  

Initial Meeting-  Pre-assessment to find child's current level and areas to work
Day 1- Matching the Letter Cards; Just say Part; Naming Categories; i=(i) voiced; sky write, trace with finger, trace with pencil
Day 2- Intro. Letter Names; Word Chairs; More Naming; t=(t) clipped, unvoiced; sky write, trace with finger, trace with pencil
Day 3- Counting and Matching the Letters of the alphabet; Same/Different; Describing (two or three actual objects or pictures); p=(p) clipped, unvoiced; sky write, trace with finger, trace with pencil
Day 4- Letter Names; Matching Same Cards; Things to think about; n=(n) continuant, voiced; sky write, trace with finger, trace with pencil
Day 5- Singing the Alphabet; Same or different; Critical thinking; s=(s) continuant, unvoiced; sky write, trace with finger, trace with pencil
Day 6- Letter Sequencing; Listening for same or different; Odd one out; a=(a) voiced; sky write, trace with finger, trace with pencil 

Students will build prerequisite literacy skills needed to be a successful reader.
