Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
How many different species of non-insect animals there are known in the world, currently? Students will discover the answer to that question in this class. However, our main focus will be 5 amazing animals that really do exist.We will discover scientific and fun facts about each of the 5 amazing animals through a slide presentation with discussions, questions and maybe even a game. 
My teaching style is fun, engaging, and flexible discovery. I want the students to be excited about what we are discovering. At the end of the class, they can print out a poster with the animals on it to share their new discoveries with others.

Learning Goals

Students will gain a greater understanding of the natural world around them, specifically animals and their habitats.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from WGU
Hello, my name is Shanin Hamilton. I am a mom of 3 kids 29, 27, and 18. I have lived on a small, hobby farm most of my life, since 1980, and we have had almost all of the different farm animals at some point. I homeschooled my oldest two kids from primary school thru high school graduation, greatest experience ever! I was a Girl Scout Leader for almost 20 years and have led hundreds of girls and other Leaders. I am also a trained K-8 teacher and have worked with students from 2 years old to 18 years old in both regular education and special education.

I have a Bachelor of Art in K-8 Interdisciplinary Studies. I have worked with students, ages 2 - 18, in multiple different settings including public schools, private daycares, Girl Scouts, and homeschooling my own children from primary school through high school graduation. I have worked as a Teachers' Aid in a 6-8th grade building in all core classes including 6-8th grade math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Geography, Civics, Life Science, and ELA. As a Teacher's Aid, my job was to pull small groups of students and reteach the concepts that were taught by the teacher, but in a easier to understand way for the students that struggled with the concepts. I also worked closely with the teachers to develop class curriculum for both the whole class and for struggling learners. I have over 10 years of experience working with children with both special learning and behavioral needs in a public classroom setting. 

My style of teaching is being flexible and fun. That means I let the students’ enthusiasm in the subject drive the lessons, because I believe that kids learn best when they enjoy the topic and can be engaged. I use lots of pictures, slides, games, and student driven discussions.

The classes that I offer are the core math, science, and language arts as well as some creative writing, online tools and organization classes.

I hope to see you, or your child, in my classroom soon! Have a marvelous day.
