In this hands-on and engaging course students will learn the short and long vowel sounds while making creations out of squishy dough! (AEIOU)
Running low on that magical dough? I’ve added a bonus video lesson for making your own! Students will use the provided printable worksheets to create capital and lower case letters out of dough. To help connect sounds with letters, students will also create objects with dough. Building with dough is a fun way for students to learn through play while also retaining information. Since there are five vowels - we will focus on one vowel per lesson. The class will be available for five weeks with no live meetings. Video lessons include a short vowel overview lesson with me as well as a "follow along with me classroom" experience where my children are featured completing the tasks. We often sing songs to help with memory.
