US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 1
Inspired by the hit show Wild Kratts, we will go creature exploring with a different animal every week. This is an interactive class in which student will find clues of the animals "creature powers" through games and Q&A. Each class will be based off an "episode". We will explore the animal, learning it's habitant, diet, and" creature powers" used to survive in the wild. We will also complete a step by step guided drawing of our animal. Each class students will receive an "At Home" worksheet to remember the animal of our class. My teaching style is laid back and engaging. I want to create a fun environment where learners feel at ease to participate.
