Rocking & Reading Camp

Grades K-2

Grab your dancing shoes and warm up your singing voices—because in Rocking and Reading, we fuse the science of reading with a rock concert vibe that kids (and grown-ups) will love. Over the course of five one-hour sessions, we’ll dive into all the short vowel sounds, creating an immersive story where YOU help Mizz KT track down the missing letters, invite them onstage, and cheer them on as they perform their show-stopping songs! Using a speech-to-print phonological approach, this class keeps learning child-centered and fun. We’ll sing our ABC’s, break down words through playful “segmenting” (without relying on print!), and make phonics come alive with kinesthetic movement—like forming letters with our own bodies! Together, we’ll explore word families, build rhymes using our homemade hip hop beats, and blend sounds into brand-new words. Along the way, we’ll meet spunky sight words and tackle them “video-game style,” combining elements from classic rhythm games and popular online adventures. By the end, you’ll have helped each short vowel sound get onstage and belt out a final story song full of words you’ve learned to read. This high-energy, hands-on format is perfect for Pre-K through 3rd grade children who love to play their way into confident reading. Come rock out with Mizz KT, and discover the joy of reading through rhythm, rhyme, and a whole lot of laughter!
