Our district curriculum includes mini-lessons, shared readings, interactive readings, small groups, and independent work stations.
Spelling/Phonics
Teachers have also been trained on the Orton-Gillingham approach to reinforce phonics concepts. Your child will practice "red words". Both will be incorporated throughout the week and will be a part of your child's grade.
Writing
A big focus of writing narratives will be to build up your child's stamina.We also have a handwriting workbook. First we review manuscript letters and then we move on to cursive letters. The kids get very excited about cursive!
