Literacy Corner by Elise Farrell
Let's talk literacy terminology! Below are some words you may hear when discussing literacy with your teacher or reading about it in the newsletter;
Literacy: The ability to read and write
Your child will be studying literacy at Hozho Academy!
Orthography: the spelling system of a language
Our literacy course includes studying the orthographic rules that make up the English language.
Phonograms: A combination of single letters to represent one sound.
{ai} is a multi-letter phonogram that stands for the sound /A/.
Syntax: The arrangement of words and phrases to create well-formed languages in a sentence. Example: We ate fish for dinner. versus We fish ate for dinner.
Book of the Week
Classic Starts
Various Authors
Have you ever wanted your child to read more classics, or perhaps you yourself want to read more classical literature, but the classics seem daunting and challenging? Classic Starts is a series that consists of abridged versions of the stories we know and while remaining true to the original story!
