👋Hello everyone, my name is Mr. Malcolm and I have been working with students for nearly 7 years now. I have primarily focused my time and efforts on helping students improve their reading abilities by creating reading assessments, evaluations and specialized reading passages that are targeted towards helping students improve their reading comprehension and fluency. Learning how to read and comprehend different passages doesn't always come easily for students. Sometimes they may struggle with making an inference at a subtle clue that the author might be sharing, or maybe one of the metaphors goes straight over their head! Whatever it might be, there is always a way to take these difficult and sometimes frustrating concepts and turn them into an enjoyable learning experience! In this 5️⃣-week course, students will learn a new reading strategy each week followed by reading a comprehensive passage. :) The strategies and stories are rather diverse and were designed and chosen specifically to help students from the 4th and 5th grades. This will be done by implementing a mixture of the different reading materials while also primarily focusing on the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). During each of the lessons, students will learn one key reading concept/strategy and work together to implement this strategy into the reading. Students will be encouraged to read out loud, ask questions, share their ideas and engage in thought-provoking discussions. They will also be asked targeted retention and discussion-based questions throughout the lesson to help guide the students to a better understanding of the main strategy for that week. While students are reading the passages they will also be able to work on their overall reading fluency. During each of the lessons, I am planning to guide and assist the students to help them improve their pronunciation, speed and expression. I also desire to utilize those situations as instructional opportunities to help the students work together to identify the meaning of an unknown word, consider the intentions of the author or see if there are any parts of the story that some of the students may not understand. Class Structure and Schedule: Week 1: Main Idea & Summary (CCSS. RL3.1, 4.1, 5.1) "Toad-ally Taking Over" Week 2: Analyzing Connections (CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL3.2, 4.2, 5.2) "Father of Canned Foods" Week 3: Characters (CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL3.3, 4.3, 5.3) "Hearing Hoofbeats" Week 4: Vocab/Language (CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.4, 5.4) "The World's Weirdest Disasters" Week 5: Points of View (CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.3.6) "Antastic Teamwork" The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) which are listed after the corresponding lessons are representing the concepts/grade levels that may be taught in that lesson. All of the passages and stories used in this course have either been written or selected by the teacher. And permission has been granted for the passages to be used. :)

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from University of North Florida
Hello everyone!r
I am very thankful to be teaching here on outschool. I have been working with children now for nearly 7 years and have been able to teach over 3000 online classes. I have a wide variety of experience from working with charter schools, local government recreation positions, public school programs and multiple online teaching platforms. Over the years I’ve had multiple educator roles such as Online Teaching, Homeschooling, Reading Tutor, Soccer Coach, Bible teacher, Sunday School, Fitness Educator, Camp Counselor and an ESL Teacher. During that time I have been able to teach BB but. By B B Bgbgg BBB b my a variety of different topics including English, Reading, Math, Finance, Fitness, Health, Technology and more.
I received my Bachelors degree from the University of North Florida while studying Health Science/Fitness. I was also in charge of putting together a health awareness program for struggling students while working with a charter school.
Afterwards I began working with multiple different curriculums and have specialized in working with struggling readers and began creating custom reading evaluations and courses that are tailored to help students improve in all areas of reading including speed, accuracy, pronunciation and comprehension.
You may also see that I offer typing courses which were designed to help students learn the foundational skills of typing on a computer by building and utilizing proper finger positioning, muscle memory and visual/kinesthetic accuracy while also incorporating challenging and engaging typing games/lessons.
I really do enjoy teaching many different topics and learning more everyday as I believe there is an infinite amount of wisdom to learn so we should never stop learning.
My goal as a teacher is to Equip, Encourage and Challenge each of my students to not just learn the information but rather to learn it and use it wisely in their lives.
If you have any questions please send me a message :)
