Beginner Level
In this class, students will receive all the tools to be prepared. This class includes the following: Language Arts (narrating through writing or orally what they read or hear), Sciences (such as the Burgess Bird Book for Children), and History/Geography. This class will ensure that students are having fun while learning. I am a homeschooling mom who follows a Classical Charlotte Mason approach to education. I love teaching online and learning my student's learning style. I will try my very best to ensure that I accommodate all learners' needs. I am also a Sign Language interpreter. Lessons will be presented with a short lesson followed by discussion. Worksheets will be provided if needed during class (mainly for maps in Geography) or we will provide Google Maps to look at where the places occur in our stories. Being able to narrate through oral and manual communication is a huge step in achieving independent learners. If you want me to make sure your child is writing narrations, please do not hesitate to ask me to do so. Books we plan on studying: History: Marco Polo (1st 8 chapters): Follows Y3 in AO. Geography: Charlotte Mason Geography Reader Book 2: The British Empire (We cover many sections of the book): Follows Y2 in AO. Literature: Tall Tales: Y3 Schedule followed in AO.

Parental Guidance
I will be using some of Ambleside Online's curriculum Y2 and Y3 to make sure I cover a little bit from both. The weeks will look different as I plan on covering more materials with some books than what's written in their curriculum outline.
