Working Up to New Levels in Gan Gimmel

[Teacher's note: May is blogging month. In honor of this, we are teaching the children about writing a blog post. This post was worked on collaboratively by Jason Gamss, J.Z. Mershon, Tamir Citron, Meira Kiss and Sarah Wasserman . The children decided what they would like to write about and then typed it up on an IPad. They selected the photos they wanted to use. They even came up with a very creative title. We hope you enjoy their first blog post.] 

Every Thursday we go to the computer room to play. We have fun. We play games. We play Lexia. Lexia helps you how to read. It has games that help you learn reading. There are many levels to pass. You have to wear headphones so you could hear the game. You need to log in by typing your name and password. We love Lexia!!! 

Learning Through Lexia in Gan Aleph

Every Monday and Friday, Gan Aleph is engaged in a phonetic reading program called Lexia. The children truly assert their independence logging onto the program, using their own headphones and logging off when we are done. Some of the games on Lexia include Rhyme Time, Sound Slide and Word Snip! Through fun games and interactive activities, lexia offers the children an opportunity to learn phonics on their own level and at their own pace. Gan Aleph is truly enjoying learning through Lexia!
