I have taught reading for the past 20 years. I have worked with preschool aged students all the way through middle school. In this class each child will be given an initial assessment in order for me to see what strengths and weakness each child has. This allows me to then put them into a phonics level where we will be able to work on phonemic awareness, phonics, word and story fluency, spelling and comprehension. The main phonics program that I use is SIPPS that was written by John Shufflnine.  As students become more confident readers our focus will slowly move from more phonics based lessons to fluency and comprehension where we will not only work on basic comprehension but response to literature as well as being able to formulate ideas and paragraphs from non-fiction text. We would slowly move from short readers to chapter books depending on the child’s abilities. After the initial assessment there will be short ongoing assessments to track the progress of each child to ensure mastery of the skills being taught throughout the lessons. The goal is for students to become more confident readers who can apply their skills in all classes. I love reading and hope to help my students become life long learners who also enjoy to read.
