Interactive Level 2 consists of 12 units, each unit containing 12 lessons broken down into learning cycles of 6 classes each. The phonics goals in Interactive Level 2 start with letter/sound recognition and move to reading words with digraphs (/sh/, /wh/, /ck/, etc.) Reading goals include reading phonics readers with various strategies (known high frequency words, finger tapping, etc.). Grammar skills such as plurals, subject pronouns, capitalization, and prepositions are studied in Interactive Level 2. As with other major course levels, lessons 6 and 12 are assessment lessons. Students are required to present a final project at the beginning of lesson 12. Students are first introduced to the project options during lesson 5, then again in lessons 6 and 11. Target Description ① Vocabulary 164 vocabulary words Vocabulary words are introduced and reviewed in many different situations throughout the curriculum. ② Sentence 119 sentence patterns Use and understand sentence patterns introduced in a variety of ways. ③ Letter Recognition 26 letters Name and recognize all big and small letters of the alphabet ④ Phonics Sounds 26 letter sounds and 11 digraphs Identify and produce the phonics sound of all letters of the alphabet, including long and short vowels. Blend sounds together to create three letter words. ⑤ HFW 72 high frequency words Recognize and read high frequency words from memory. ⑥ Grammar 14 grammar rules Learn the basic grammar rules and try to apply them. ⑦ Verbs 81 verbs Be able to understand the meaning of the verbs and apply them in a simple sentence. ① Vocabulary: A body of words used in a particular language. Vocabulary is taught through memorization and prompted with a series of context clues, songs, games, and teacher-led physical actions or activities. ② Sentence Patterns: Sentence patterns are question and answer structures that allow the teacher and student to focus on scaffolding language learning from grammatically easy to more difficult. VIPKid teachers encourage the students to truly use, not only memorize, the sentence structures by asking a sentence with the same meaning in many different ways. This allows the VIPKid student to truly transfer classroom language to real life. ③ Letter Recognition: Letters are the building blocks of the English language. Students learn the name, formation, uppercase and lowercase forms for each letter. ④ Phonics Sounds: Individual phonemes are the smallest unit of sound in speech. Students learn that each letter represents a particular sound. Blends and digraphs then combine phonemes to create a single sound. ③ HFW: High frequency words, or sight words are words that appear most often in printed text. These words generally have little meaning themselves, but are vital to the meaning of a sentence. The opposite of phonics, these words are taught through memorization. ④ Grammar: Grammar is the analysis of the structure of a language. Grammar skills help students create. ⑤ Verbs: Verbs are the part of language that express action. In English, verbs can be quite tricky as they change form in the present, future, and past tenses. A rich knowledge of verbs enables the speaker or writer to express themselves more clearly and accurately.
