Description

Class Experience

Through this intensive study class, students will become better readers, writers, and thinkers. This course will give students the academic boost and confidence to succeed in the 4th and 5th grades. Grade level standards in writing, reading, comprehension, grammar, speech and debate, and critical thinking are covered.
I am a middle-grade special education English teacher with a Master's in English Education and have taught grades 3-12. I am passionate about educating others about disability studies and have taught all of these texts in my classroom. For my master's degree, I wrote my dissertation on the importance of positive representation of exceptionalities in literature for youth. 
All reading is done outside of class. 30-45 pages per class.
Printouts (posted on the classroom) and novels.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Students will be given a grade and progress report at the end of the semester. 
1 hour 30 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
Out of My Mind deals with a character with cerebral palsy and some sad themes (no deaths) and Percy Jackson is a fantasy novel that has some mild violence and mild crude humor (words such as "idiot" and "stupid" are used sparingly). All of these books are rated for ages 9-12. Topics will be kept at an age-appropriate level. 
Books Used: Out of My Mind by Sharon Draper and Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief

About Me

Thank you for visiting my Outschool profile! Since I was 5 years-old, I knew that I wanted to be a teacher. Now, 7 years in my career, I still love it. There is nothing that I enjoy more than helping my students reach their goals and become better...
