Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 7
Beginner Level
Do you want to learn all about horses and what it takes to take care of horses? Come and "visit" my farm where we take care of 20 horses.  Learners will learn about different topics that pertain to horses through videos and handouts.  The learners will learn the anatomy of the horse, breeds of horses, and basic care of horses. 
  
Each lesson, I will post videos, handouts, and readings to talk about the different topics.  After watching the videos or reading the materials, the students will participate by doing different activities for the week.  The teacher will provide feedback to the learners once a week.  I will usually check in on Fridays.   

 
No formal grades will be awarded.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from Northwest Missouri State University
Hello!  My name is Kellie.  I have over 15 years of experience teaching students in a variety of settings.
 I have continued to expand my teaching experience and explore new areas of interest. I have taught students of various ages and backgrounds, both in traditional classroom settings and online platforms.

I strive to create engaging and interactive lessons that cater to each student's unique learning style, fostering their confidence and love for learning.

In terms of my qualifications, I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Childhood and a Reading Endorsement. My passion lies in teaching foundational skills, particularly in reading. I firmly believe that every student has the potential to learn, but it's important to recognize and accommodate their individual learning needs and pace. In my classes, I provide multiple approaches to learning a concept, ensuring that each student has the opportunity to grasp it in a way that resonates with them.

Beyond my teaching experience, I have a diverse background in agriculture and farming. My husband and I are actively involved in raising quarter horses for working cow horse competitions. I find joy in merging my love for agriculture with my teaching endeavors, incorporating elements of farm life and nature into my lessons. It's a unique way to engage students and broaden their understanding of the world around them.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I'm excited to connect with more learners and families, and I look forward to the opportunity to inspire a love for learning in your child.
