Very few characters go through as tremendous a transformation as Ebenezer Scrooge and the Grinch! Join me for some holiday fun as we think about the similarities and differences between these two grumps-turned-good. We will start off class by watching clips of both movies to ensure all students have a familiar understanding of both characters. Then, we will be creating a Venn Diagram to showcase their similarities and differences, and then I will guide the students through writing a solid paragraph showcasing their knowledge. We will work on concepts such as topic sentences, transition words, and supporting details. By the end of class, students will have a polished piece of writing! This class is inclusive, which means students of all abilities are welcome. If you student needs any accommodations please let me know and we will work together to ensure that they have the best possible class experience.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Jackie Shaw, and I am so excited to teach your child. I specialize in teaching reading and writing to grades 7-12. I earned my Bachelors of Science from New York University, and my Masters of Arts at Middlebury College. I am also a devoted mom to two children, and will absolutely pull from my experience of teaching them to design fun and engaging lessons for the younger learners!
I have been teaching in public education on Long Island for the last 13 years, and I will now bring what I know from the classroom into my teaching practices with Outschool. I am a teacher who deeply values communication and activity. We learn from talking and from doing, so my classes are really centered around experiential learning. I hope to hear my students' voices more than I hear my own.
My hobbies include cooking, crafting, yoga, traveling, raising animals, and MUSIC! I minored In music performance at NYU and was in a production of Peter Pan in 2019. I will definitely be drawing on my passions as well to create engaging classes for our learners.
I look forward to meeting you!
