US Grade Kindergarten - 2
In this one-time class, learners will be introduced to the art of writing a basic, complete sentence. We will explore the unique parts of speech that makes a sentence complete: subject (who, what) + verb (the action the subject does). Prerequisites: Learners should know how to write the alphabet fluently before taking this class because we will not spend much or any learning time on handwriting and penmanship. After mastering the art of writing a basic sentence, I recommend that learners proceed to take the “I Can Write a Super Sentence” class to learn how to make their sentence more descriptive. Learners will actively participate in class via: 1. Engaging with their peers and the teacher 2. Sharing their ideas 3. Writing on the screen or their own writing materials I will engage learners using a variety of materials such as: 1. Flashcards, 2. Puppets and stuffed animals, 3. Realia (real pictures or videos using my phone or tablet) 4. Google Slides 5. Music, dancing, and singing 6. Reward Systems 7. & Lots of encouragement! Let's get writing! I can't wait to see your learner in class. Ms. Tessa

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi and Welcome to Ms. Tessa’s Classroom!
I'm Ms. Tessa, and I am so excited to meet you! I am a teacher-author, 13-year veteran teacher, and a homeschool mama of 11 years. I have 5+ years of online teaching experience with grades kindergarten-5th grade. I specialize in literacy education and am the founder and head of school at a Texas private school.
I am so very passionate about what I do as an educational leader. I believe that language and literacy is the foundation for all learning; thus, it is imperative that your child experiences a quality, literacy and language arts education to set them up to succeed in all other subject areas.
My Educational Background and Aspirations:
I have a Child Development Associate, an Associates in Early Childhood Education, a Bachelor of Science in Counseling Foundations, a TESOL certification, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies with an emphasis in special education, religion, and general k-12 education.
My ultimate goal is to help children become confident readers, speakers and writers. We will grow together, learn together, jump over hurdles together, and reach goals together.
Fun Stuff about Me:
I love singing. I love spending time with my family. I love watermelon and cherries in the summer. I love listening to music and dancing at random times during the day (even when my kids think I'm weird and walk away). Sometimes I love long car rides, but only if the kids are on their best behavior.
Thanks for reading and I hope to see you in my online classroom!
