為 9-12 歲高年級學生提供自然拼讀、拼字和解碼支援營

Does your fourth, fifth or sixth grader still struggle to spell? Do they freeze when they encounter a tricky word in their reading? Do they still spell 'hope' as 'hop' or 'main' as 'man'? Then this class is for them!

Most phonics instruction stops in the primary grades and students get little help thereafter with the rules of phonics. They continue to struggle with spelling. They continue to struggle to decode. Then their comprehension and writing suffer all because they are missing a few of the basics.

This course, led be a certified reading specialist, meets for just 25 minutes, two times a week for twelve weeks. In that time, your child will learn phonics through a systematic, explicit and age-appropriate approach with their peers.  Phonemic awareness work will also be included if deemed necessary through the initial assessment.

Students will have homework after each class using Google Forms to practice the work they completed in class. This is also a great opportunity as a parent to see what they are working on in class and support them at home as well.
