ALL About The PHONICS for READING, WRITING, and SPELLING program:

     Phonics for Reading, Writing, and Spelling is a comprehensive program encompassing reading, writing, spelling, and comprehension. This interactive, phonics-intensive program is steeped in the time-tested Spalding philosophy of reading.  Students will learn systematically as phonograms are presented in order from simple to complex.  Multi-sensory lessons are fast-paced and fun!  Students will learn and grow with our original characters Jojo and Jake as they follow them through a series of 45 all-original stories.  

Engaging characters, thoughtful stories, and smooth continuity of lessons make Phonics for Reading, Writing, and Spelling highly effective for all learning styles!

If you're looking to build great readers and inspire a love of reading.... you've come to the right place!         


LEVEL A - CLASS OVERVIEW

This ongoing class will teach students the concept of Magic-e (Silent-e) and solidify it with  fun, colorful practice.  The class will continually loop through a 5-week cycle, giving each vowel its week in the spotlight.  Hop in at any point...stay as long as you like!! You'll never miss a beat.  It's a fun way to master CVC-e words.

My teaching style is welcoming, kind, and patient, so students always feel right at home.  Each child will have ample opportunity to interact within the classroom. 

This class can prepare your reader for my next level class "Phonics for Reading, Writing, and Spelling - Level B: "CVCe to Simple Blends and Digraphs."  It is a great way to gain the Silent-e knowledge that is a prerequisite for entering that class.  It will also introduce learners to the format of this phonics instruction and introduce them to our cute friends Jojo and Jake, whom they will follow throughout the program.

So, whether prepping for the next level or simply introducing your young reader to the power of Magic-e, you'll find what you need here.  
I'm so excited to meet your learner.

Expectations for In-Class Sound Quality and Muting

     I will always encourage all students to participate in the class experience. 
My desire is to have students unmuted as much as possible.  It creates an ease of interacting and answering questions without spend time muting and unmuting.  In order for this to take place, it is important to have your student situated in a quiet place that is free from background noise such as television, radio, phone calls, or conversations.  Basic Rule of Thumb:  If you can hear it....so can the entire class.

     I will sometimes mute students, but I will also call on them for answers and thoughts, so every child needs to know how to unmute.  I do not have the ability to unmute students from my end.  Please, show your child how to unmute when asked to do so. 

I realize that there are times when you may need to mute your own child for privacy reasons or due to unavoidable background noise, so please feel free to use your discretion in these circumstances.  

Working together, we can attain great sound quality for all the students!
