Class Experience

Students will engage with Teacher Lily (Mrs. Palmer) through free drawing, show and tell, play, stories, and other fun activities. The focus of this class is to have fun and build confidence through play, drawing and sharing while allowing the learner to familiarize themselves with online learning at the learner's own pace and comfort level. Please note that although we will draw in this class, it is not an art class.  It is a fun class where learners, who may be interested in online classes, but who might need time to adjust to class settings can practice through play and activities based on the learner's interests.  Additionally, this class is for learner's who are in my group classes and would like to spend more time 1:1 to expand on topics/activities we discussed in other classes.

For parents: I hope to provide an alternative play option for your children when other social activities are not possible and help them prepare for other group online classes.  Although this is an ongoing course, it is absolutely okay to sign up for just one class if you cannot commit to weekly classes. I am listing this as an ongoing course one day a week, but I am willing to add time/days/frequency.  Please feel free to request times and I will see if I am available to make a group on the time/day requested.

(If your student is interested in a certain topic, please feel free to send me a message and I would love to create a class session with that topic).


The teacher will occasionally use excerpts of story books and quick transition video clips (with author's/performer's/creator's permissions) to introduce an activity or allow the students to move/play a game.  These will only be used as supporting materials to provide opportunities for social engagement/movement and will not be used for long periods of the class. 
(ex. Thelearningstationmusic.com & Jackhartmann.com music videos.  See sources sections for a complete list of updated video and book materials used and how to find these sources yourself.)
Learning Goals
Students will build confidence and practice online learning at their own pace through play and focusing on activities based on learner interest. The student will build confidence and skills in areas they are interested; such as drawing, speaking, and sharing through practice.  The students will be allowed to adjust to this new learning environment at their own pace and be able to focus on their own interests.  The teacher will introduce new activities for the learner when ready to help them prepare for the opportunity to join group classes when they feel ready and are interested.  Additionally, through play and sharing the learner will learn how to sit in front of the camera, share toys on screen, talk towards the microphone, and if capable practice using zoom drawing tools.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
If student is new to Outschool/Zoom, please be in the room or available to help student with mute/unmute buttons if needed. Students will need to have drawing supplies available for class. Otherwise minimal parental guidance should be needed. I may include occasional seated limited movement activity for learners who may need a movement break. This is optional and learner can opt out of participating or I can skip movement activities if requested.
Supply List
Required Supplies (Students may use these items for class)
Paper or Whiteboard or drawing tablet 
markers/pencils/crayons
Student can use another art medium such as clay, paint, or even blocks if they are interested.

I will send a message prior to future classes if additional supplies are needed for a fun craft activity, but prefer to keep it simple to allow students an opportunity to work more independently and allow parents to use this 25 min class period as needed with only basic supervision needed on their part.
