I will show students how to write with complete sentences and add details to their writing. I want students to feel like they can be creative, but I also understand that some students prefer step-by-step instructions and guidance. I plan to teach to all learning styles. What is my teaching style? My classroom teaching style is energetic, sometimes a little silly with clear instructions and structure. Learner Interaction: 1. Learners are free to ask questions any time! 2. Learners will get to share planning ideas. 3. Learners can share their writing if they are comfortable. This class is best for students around 1st, 2nd or 3rd grade who have been exposed to story writing, but want to continue practicing writing skills in a fun way. Upon signing up for class, you will receive a pdf file with two different writing pages (one with lines and one with guided handwriting lines) and different character page toppers to choose from. Your child should have the graphic organizer, one writing page and one Christmas character page topper already chosen and printed to be ready for the class. We will write, decorate and assemble it during class.
