Did you know there are over 250 kinds of bumblebees? In this one time class, students will learn all about bumblebees. Students will learn that some bumblebees can tolerate very cold temperatures, that they live in smaller colonies, and they celebrate by running around their nest when they return from foraging for food. Students will also learn about their habitat, what they look like and who their predators are. I will use Nearpod slides to present the information via text, images and video. Students will participate in the lesson by following along with the slides, through discussion, and guided activities.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome and thanks for stopping by! My name is Brittany and I live in South Florida. I'm a native Floridian and have lived here most of my life. In my free time, you can find me outside. I enjoy hiking local trails and relaxing at the beach.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Education with a major in Elementary Education as well as an ESOL endorsement. I taught at some capacity for almost a decade. I was a K-5 substitute teacher in college before becoming a certified K-6 public school teacher. I have experience teaching grades K-3 in both South Florida and Western North Carolina. I also have experience teaching in a Dual Language program. I'm excited for the opportunity to reach students worldwide through teaching online and to offer content that I'm passionate to learn about and teach.
My philosophy as a teacher includes providing a safe and comfortable space for growing lifelong learners. Understanding the learning style of individual students and implementing lessons with clear objectives allows me to teach with clarity and focus. I encourage learning through interactivity, real-world purpose, discussion and reflection. I believe in nurturing my student's interests and allow them to take control of their own learning experience through self-discovery and independence.
My areas of expertise include remedial reading intervention, language arts, and phonics. I'm passionate about teaching environmental science classes on topics such as climate change, conservation and sustainability as well as classes on mindfulness and social-emotional skills.
