Hello and welcome! Thank you for your interest in my class. I have two years of experience teaching kindergarten and love to do crafts while learning about topics. This is a fun and interactive class. We will be learning about bats and then ending the class by making one. The class will begin with introductions and a PowerPoint presentation about bats. This will be introductory material. We will then be making bats together as a class. Students will need to have a toilet paper roll (an extra is always good in case they mess up), various colors of construction paper for the wings and features, glue, scissors, googly eyes (optional), and a black marker to color the toilet paper roll. Please note that supplies can vary. You can look at the picture of the bat in the listing to give you ideas. I will be making the bat along with the students to help guide them through the process. I encourage them to be creative and add their own unique features. We will then share our creations. Thank you for your interest in my class. Please let me know if you have any questions or any course requests. I hope to see your student soon!
Learning Goals
Students will learn scientific information about bats and then they will use their motor and creative skills to make their own bats.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Teacher Emily or Ms. E. Thank you for visiting my profile. I have a very diverse teaching and educational background that allows me to bring expertise, experience, and excitement to each class. It also allows me to teach a wide variety of subjects with an emphasis on science. I have experience working with students from ages 4-17.
I have Bachelor’s degrees in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Microbiology from the University of Georgia. I then became a certified teacher in broad field science for grades 6-12.
I spent five years as a public school classroom science teacher for grades 7-8. I also tutored Physics, Chemistry, Math, and Biology to high school students. For two years, I taught kindergarten at a private school. While teaching kindergarten, I was responsible for creating my own curriculum just like with Outschool. Most recently, I have taught ESL to students online for three years with VIPKid. I have taught almost 4,000 online classes! During my online ESL classes, I often utilize step by step drawings and games for rewards. Therefore, I am very experienced in those areas as well. My experience with classroom and online teaching is an asset to teaching successful and engaging classes through Outschool. I also love to build the confidence of learners which I have mastered during my time teaching students a second language. Teaching is my passion because it gives me the opportunity to see students learn and grow.
My other passion is for all things science! I particularly enjoy life sciences and chemistry. I am fascinated by the world around us especially what we cannot see. I’d love to help convey that excitement and wonder to your child. My classes are interactive and designed to pique students interest in the science while mastering the material. I also love drawing, riddles, games, and discussions which I use often in my current online classes. I will be using those skills to bring exciting and engaging classes to your learner!
I have three children and my favorite thing to do is spend time with them. We enjoy traveling, exploring the outdoors, and trying new and interesting food. I also love to read! That is another passion that I like to share with students.
If you have any class requests or subjects that you would like to see added to my classes, please let me know. I am happy to accommodate if possible.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile. I hope to see you child in class very soon! Reviews
