閱讀－系統、結構化、有趣！第二部分，我會讀書

Almost all materials will be made available to print, online via Google Docs..
Please see below about class setup, thank you.

Parents are recommended to get the reading textbooks which are very inexpensive; students should practice reading them to parents and get used to handling real books.

Since this is a structured text based course, please be sure to print the work in advance, thank you.

1. LINK  Check and Double Check Phonics Book 1 -- I have purchased a licence and will send you the link to print it. In this class we will do approximately pages  25 to 60, units 5 to 7, plus the short vowels a and i from a later unit.

2. LINK Ladybird Workbooks 1 to 6 (Workbook 2 only in this class). These are many decades out of print and unavailable otherwise. I will send you a link to print one copy *for classroom educational purposes only, not for publication or resale.*

3. LINK   SPELD Decodable Readers Level 1. We will read a selected number of these. They are interesting and funny. These are made available free of cost. I will send you a link to the specific ones we are using. 
If you want to see others feel free to look at the SPELD website which is excellent and informative.

4. LINK  Canadian Reading Development Off to School Workbook. In this class we aim to do about pages 1 to 12 or perhaps up to 20.

5. Ladybird Key Words Reading Scheme Books 1a, 1b, 1c (Later classes will use up to 6a, 6b, 6c)
I have these books to share for class time. but it is much better if the students practice at home as well.

Available on Amazon either as single books or complete set. We don't use 7a and 7b up to 10a and 10b but the set is still a savings in money.
Please note I don't work for Amazon or receive any money from them. This link is provided only for information. Other sellers may carry these same books.

Parents may sit beside young students and help them with their materials etc. 
************************************************************************************

This is an intensive academic class. Students need to be comfortable and able to communicate.

* Please be sure the child has a comfortable chair and support for their feet. They need a good light so they can see the paper they are writing on, away from the screen so they can look back and forth.
* They need to be able to reach the keyboard and also have a clear desk space for papers and books. 
*Pens and fine point markers that can mark on a page with just a touch are much preferable writing materials. Pencils are fatiguing for the hands and invisible on screen.
* Students also need a notebook or at least some plain paper for practice as things come up. Notebooks are strongly recommended for organization. Also you can save the notebook for a learning portfolio. 
Interlined primary notebooks are very helpful, available at most stationery stores, often at dollar stores, or online. 
*Students need a camera and a microphone and have to keep them turned on. This is a highly interactive class in which students speak more than the teacher, so shutting off just will not work.
* Since students are talking all the time, please finish your snack before we start class.
* I suggest punching your copies with a three hole punch and keeping them in duotang three-pin folders, as well as writing in standard soft cover notebooks. At the end of the year you can box up all the work we have done and there is a portfolio. This is helpful both for homeschooling and for switching schools.
