Grade 1 Month 2 The Wonder of Consonants
OVERVIEW
Using the living images presented through stories, well-chosen verses and poems, and fun hands-on creative activities, you will present 10 consonants to your child in this unit. Daily Wonder will use The Roadmap to Literacy (TRL) to guide the scaffolding for literacy and will place it into the context of the home learning environment. You’ll be cultivating your child’s ability to listen to stories, recite, and live in a world of oral expression. By listening, your child will be gaining a rich vocabulary. Those who learn to speak expressively gain the ability to share their feelings with conviction. Literacy is the foundation for expression including letter recognition, sound recognition, phonics rules, syllable rules, spelling rules, and grammar. Your child will journey through this path over the next few years.
