Class Experience

US Grade 8 - 12
Students will learn how to build a detailed 3D neighborhood including homes, people, cars, trees, and more while exploring architecture along the way!

Each lesson will begin by learning new SketchUp tools. I will be going over each new tool, how it works, and what it will be used for in regards to the 3D building model. 

The completed neighborhood should be submitted to the Outschool classroom.

*Please note, grades (letter/percentage) are not issued for this course.

I look forward to seeing all of the wonderful creations.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Jan and I am so excited to work with your child. I have a Bachelor's degree from Bowling Green State University in Graphic Design and 20 years of experience working with children in the classroom. I am TESOL certified and have been teaching online for the last year. Before teaching online, my husband and I owned a S.T.E.A.M. Innovation Center where we taught camps and classes. I am excited to bring these camps and classes to Outschool. I love working with children. My favorite thing to do is to play games with my kids. I have three children. Mason is 16 and a wonderful musician, Grant is 10 and loves science, Emily is 7 and loves climbing and running. I am looking forward to having fun with your child in my classroom. I look forward to meeting you soon!
