Reading with Deanna W.

Welcome to K-5th grade Reading Class where we will explore the depths of reading, spelling, and writing with a focus on decoding and encoding using Structured Literacy. In this class, students will acquire essential skills that enable them to read accurately and fluently. I utilize a technology rich and multi-sensory approach that is used to improve literacy outcomes for students. Students will learn various strategies to help them decode words, comprehend sentences and paragraphs while simultaneously building upon their phonological awareness skills. The goal is not only to develop reading proficiency but also to instill a love for literature in our students. I tell my students if you can read it, you can write it! Reading & Writing is a reciprocal relationship in education. Vocabulary & Spelling. Vocabulary & Comprehension. Background knowledge & Context. All of the goals that we look for in a student that has mastered reading are the reciprocal relationship of what we look for in a student that has mastered writing and reading comprehension. My goal is to provide a supportive environment where your child feels confident asking questions or seeking clarification when needed. I want to encourage parents/guardians to support their children's learning by reading and writing with each other each week. By enrolling in this K-5th Grade Structured Literacy Reading, Writing, and Spelling Class, you are investing in your child's future by providing them with essential skills for academic success and life-long learning.
