Description

Class Experience

Let's time travel, learn some amazing facts about Ancient Egypt, and make some new friends!

During this 5 week class, we will be visiting Ancient Egypt and we will be doing this using 2 different book series. The first, the "Who Was" series. This series of books brings a lot of powerful information on people, places, and events to children in a straightforward way. The second, the "Magic Tree House" series. This series brings in a bit of fiction with Jack and Annie, but we will also be...

Diving into and learning about Ancient Egypt. Learners will also learn how to share and present projects and discuss ideas with peers.

I have been a teacher on Outschool since 2020 and I teach on 2 additional online platforms. I have a biology background, however, I studied US and World History for 3 years in college, as well as 2 years of Chinese. I have also trained in a non-credited format, for many years, with an author and speaker who specializes in teaching children character qualities. 

I have always enjoyed teaching. My first teaching position was in Moscow, Russia, teaching English as a second language. Since then, I’ve taught in various settings which include a cooperative, a preschool, and as a tutor in the areas of math, science, and English. I also am a homeschool mom!

I have taught this class to different groups at a cooperative, for both lower and upper elementary students. I enjoy teaching a subject or principle and including different areas of study along with the original idea.

Reading of the weekly book and book based project. I will also send links and printables to aid in the experience.

Students will need a copy of the book, which I will email a list to parents after enrollment. Books can be downloaded on a Kindle device instantly, purchased directly, or borrowed from the library. 

Students will also need supplies for their projects. Depending on what they want to do, most supplies will be on hand, such as paper, cardboard, glue, crayons, scissors... and if they'd like to just write a poem or build with legos... that is just as good!

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:Kahoot

55 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 2 - 4 hours per week outside of class.

Multiple Egyptian gods will be discussed and mummification will be discussed. These could be sensitive subjects for some, however, the topics are discussed in an age appropriate way.
