Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
Beginner Level
This class will use videos, pictures, lecture and discussion to learn about the secret unit within the US military that helped fight in WWII. The unit came to be known as the Ghost Army. The Ghost Army used deception and diversion tactics to help win the war.

I keep my classes small to ensure that students are able to engage and not feel crowded out. Questions and thoughts are encouraged throughout class, but not required. If you prefer to keep engagement to a minimum, you are welcome to use the chat feature to communicate with me.

The students will be given the opportunity to complete a project, that they can turn in to me up to a week after the lecture/discussion time, if they choose to participate. I will also be available throughout the week to answer any questions that the students my have as they delve deeper into the subject on their own.

June 2021 Update: This class requires the minimum number of learners enrolled in order to run the class. I will email adults one week prior to class if we have not met the minimum number of learners as a heads up. This will give both myself and the learner's adults the opportunity to promote the class as best we can. If the minimum number of enrollments is not met three days prior to class time, we will work together to make arrangements to transfer learners to different sections of the class or full refunds will be provided. Having a wide margin of time between possible cancelation and class time provides time for additional arrangements to be made to fill that space in the learner's day with other fun classes or activities.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Because we are talking about war, I will be showing some videos that will include actual war footage, but no killing. My children are 8 and 10 and I would have no issues with them seeing these videos, but I wanted to make sure you were aware. Also, one video talks about Adolf Hitler killing himself. I understand that this is a sensitive matter. If you would like links to the videos that I will be showing that contain this subject matter, please let me know before the first class begins, so you can decide if this class is right for your child.
