Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 4
This 4-week course is so much fun, your kiddos won't even realize they're sharpening their core reading skills! 😃

In this course, we will be honing our skills in almost every aspect of reading (literacy, comprehension, fluency, spelling, story elements, story sequencing, vocabulary, conflict & resolution, cause & effect, fact vs. opinion, etc.) all while learning about goats! I have lived most of my life on a farm and I love having the opportunity to include my animals in my teaching. The animals on our farm have helped me homeschool my own children and teach many other children over the years.

❗ Important Notes for Parents ❗
► If your kiddo is having an especially tough time on our class day, please send me a message to let me know they need a little extra love that day. No details necessary, just a quick note. I'll keep an eye on them during class and try my best to turn their day around.
► All learners are welcome in my classroom. Please let me know if any special accommodations are required for your child.
► This course will soon be part of an ongoing series of classes featuring different animals on our farm. The other classes in the series will be listed here as they are published.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
We will be using a third-party tool entitled LUMIO for our lessons. I will be sharing a link to the lesson so that the students and I can go through the material together. This will be for slides of the stories, group discussion questions, and games relating to the material. All activities on LUMIO may only accessed during our live class as the link becomes inactive when I end the lesson. Students will not need an account of any kind to view our content on LUMIO. They will be asked to enter their first name so that I can track all feedback from students during the lesson. No other information is requested or required.
Supply List
All materials for this course will be provided by the instructor.
