Buzz into the fascinating world of bugs and insects in this interactive virtual science class. This course combines science, literacy, and creativity- perfect for young learners ready to investigate and display their knowledge. This class will begin with a movement video and warm introduction to set the stage for curious exploration. Together, we will read an age appropriate non-fiction text about a Creepy Crawly creature to learn key facts and uncover surprising details. Examples include: spiders, centipedes, snails, cockroaches. Using a fun and easy graphic organizer - we will collect and sort information to deepen understanding and support vocabulary. To wrap up our exploration each student will be supported in writing a sentence (or more!) to share what they learned. Finally- I will provide the option to follow a guided drawing or allow students to illustrate themselves to bring the creature to life!

I have been teaching early learners for over 13 years. I have been with public school for 10 years and before that I worked for an accredited pre-k program. I also hybrid- home school my own two children. I have successfully taught 100's of students to confidently read, write, and do basic math in fun and engaging ways. I have excellent student and parent relationships. I have taught many versions of this class format in person and virtually. Reviews
