US Grade 1 - 5
In this class, your child will receive one-on-one support to learn how to effectively use conjunctions. These are words used to join parts of sentences and show the relationship between ideas. Understanding and using conjunctions is one of the most important skills that helps children write clearly and effectively. Children who struggle with conjunctions, may write in disjointed ways, making it harder for readers to follow their train of thought. Their writing may also lack variety, as they...
Students will focus on using conjunctions to build better sentences. They will improve their creative sentence construction with a dedicated teacher.
Carly Filewich, BCYC, ECE she/her I love making space for young people to bring meaning to their experiences - be they social, educational or creative. I'm a lifelong learner and a parent. As a writer myself, I enjoy the process of creating worlds and inspiring others to enjoy writing. My grandparents spoke Dutch (maternal) and Ukrainian (paternal) growing up. I especially love recycling textiles with my learners on Outschool! I have pet worms who eat my compost. I love to eat (and talk about!) wild foods. I completed a Bachelor's of Child and Youth Care, with early childhood education specialization from the University of Victoria. Learning about humans is my favourite.
