Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 4
Over the course of 8 weeks, students will dive into the novel Charlotte's Web by E.B. White. Students will use critical thinking skills to deepen their understanding of the novel and learning what true friendship entails.

Students will answer questions about the novel, including character actions and motivations. We will also learn new or unfamiliar vocabulary used in the novel. In addition to reading the novel, students will watch video lessons and complete various activities to strengthen their understanding of various skills related to the Common Core Standards.

Activity sheets and presentations will be used while discussing Charlotte's Web, and will be uploaded to the classroom for each lesson.

This is a self-paced course, with no live meetings, but learners will receive full teacher support through monitoring of submitted work. Please allow 24 hours for teacher response.

Students should read the chapters for the week prior to watching video lessons. Lesson videos are about 30-45 minutes long, with additional 15-30 minutes of practice work each week.

Arizona Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello! I am Miss Kelly, and I love teaching! I am a former public school teacher, turned stay at home mom/online teacher. I am mom to 3 little ones, triplets, and I love that I get to work from home and be with them more! 

I will be hosting a majority math-based classes, though I will add in language arts or science classes as well from time to time.

I am a certified teacher, moving out of the classroom and into a small group setting. I love working with small groups of students on interesting topics and making learning fun and hands on. I believe students learn best when they can work on activities hands-on and even more so if it can relate to their life in some way. I also love to teach/learn through games!
