Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 2
In this one-time class, your young learner will learn all about bridges!  I am pleased to offer your young learner an interactive hands-on learning experience. The class will begin with a fun thought-provoking question to get your learner thinking all about bridges!  In this class we will learn about five types of bridges; the arch bridge, beam bridge, suspension bridge, cable-stay bridge, and truss bridge.  We will also have a class discussion about what bridges are used for and why they are important.   Through the magic of technology, we will take a virtual field trip to visit famous bridges around the world.  To complete the building portion of the class we will being by introducing the scientific method and following the steps when conducting our bridge-building experiment!  Join me for this exciting STEM activity class!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Greetings, my name is Ms. Wells! My Outschool classes are designed for children ages 3-7 who enjoy learning through music, movement, and hands-on fun!  I will be teaching classes centered around reading, science, history, math, and preschool skills.  My goal is for my classes to be engaging, educational, and child-centered. 

I have studied Early Childhood Education, and I taught Preschool and Kindergarten for 13 years before becoming a stay-at-home mom.  Preschool and kindergarten-age children are my favorite to teach.  I enjoy watching them learn and discover something new about the world. As a teacher, my goal is to help my students develop a passion for learning.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my children!  We enjoy baking and cooking together, we truly enjoy experimenting with new recipes.  My family and I also enjoy taking our daily walk, staying active is very important to me.  I look forward to helping your student learn and grow!
