Today I am giving you a glimpse into how I teach Language Arts to my own kids.
Language Arts is one of thosesuper importantsubjects you teach in homeschool.
Something that would assume I knew nothing and would guide me through everything.
Our Language Arts Curriculum
After researching for a long time I found Sing Spell Read and Write.
SSRW is a multisensory approach that does a fantastic job of systematically covering material.
I love that the lessons are fun, colorful, interactive, straight forward, and easy to teach.
Not being a trained teacher I just assumed all words were taught through phonics.
There are, however, words that break the rules but arecommon words kids should know.
If it is warm enough we like to play outside or visit the library.
I pretty much spend the morning from 8:30am 11am playing with my younger kids.
I like to sit next to my student as they complete their short 15-30 minute language art lessons.
Then they read words or short stories to me as we finish our lesson for the day.
As I have littles at home I like to teach Language Arts after lunch.
2nd grade students can read well and can start working for short period of times independently.
We start the day at 8am practicing the piano.
At 8:30am, my 2nd grader moves to the dinning room table for Language Arts & Math.
Then I give him a spelling test.
Any words he misses get added toConnect 4 Spelling Practice.
This is good motivation for us.
He waits to read to me in the afternoon.
It helps break up the monotony and just makes our days more fun.
I have over50 FREE Language Arts printables for Preschool 3rd gradearranged by grade.
So I provide lots of opportunities for my kids to write.
