充滿信心地閱讀！幼兒園、一年級和二年級的有趣學習方式

As an experienced reading teacher, I know how important it is to keep the learning fun! Reading while discovering The Magic Closet always keeps things interesting! This fun and skill-building, ongoing class will provide the phonetic mechanics required for your child to decode and read with confidence.  Let's practice vowel-blends, review simple sounds and enjoy word formation as we delve into the Magic Closet. This is an excellent class for the learner who is just beginning to read, or for those struggling with proficiency. Every child has an opportunity to read aloud during every single class!

Each class will stand alone as we focus on individual letter sounds, match them with vowels, and create new words. We will practice writing and be introduced to sight words. Our read-aloud stories will reinforce the vowel and consonant combinations of the day. 

Because of our vowel blend approach, some days may have two focus letters (as in the case of "C" and "K" - ca, ke, ki, co, cu). If a particular vowel is the focus of the day, we will learn the long and short sounds of the vowel. We will learn why vowels sometimes say their long sounds and how to tell the difference. Learning about silent vowels comes into play with these lessons.

To keep things exciting, we will also visit the Magic Closet to enjoy a daily STEM lesson and discover a "mystery object" to engage our thinking skills!
