Description
Class Experience
Students will begin to learn how to read a map, create their own map, key and apply these skills through games, videos, and creating art related projects to post in the classroom. They will also build a great classroom community of friends!
Homework will be simple drawings, interacting in the classroom through commenting and posting, as well as creating short videos to present their homework or to speak on their homework. Homework should never take too long when assigned. The great thing about flex classes is students are able to complete the work when it is convenient for them!
Students will need paper, pencil, a recording device to create and post videos, images and to discuss their topics in the classroom. Students do not meet live, so they will need to be able to interact in the classroom through posting homework and activities they complete as well as commenting (with kindness) on other students posts.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Learners are informally assessed throughout the class time through their posts, comments and homework assignments.
No live meetings, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
Parents may need to assist students with posting their homework videos and images. Commenting from students will need to be regulated by parents with kindness encouraged when responding or commenting on classroom posts. Students may need parents to help them with one of their classroom drawings or two.
All sources and resources are provided by the teacher. Sources used will be power points, videos, images, pdfs and posting in the classroom comment boxes.
