This class is taught in English.
Students will be introduced to all 26 letters of the alphabet, including their phoneme (letter sound) and grapheme (printed letter). By the end of this class, students will be beginning to blend and segment 2 or 3 letters, which is the foundation for reading and spelling.
In addition to my primary/junior teaching qualifications, I have also completed the following certificate programs related to reading instruction: - Overcoming Dyslexia, Yale University - Basics of Decoding and Spelling, International Dyslexia Association - Acadience Reading K-6
