Spirit Wear Day

Jolly Phonics

All year

Our class will be starting the Jolly Phonics program at the end of this month. Jolly Phonics will help strengthen literacy skills by teaching students about the different letter sounds. Students will learn a new phonics sound in the order that the program suggests to introduce them. We will practice each sound for two days. For each new sound students will:

-Make the sound and do the action that goes along with it

- Read words out loud and discuss where that sound is located in the word

-Write the letter multiple times
