What's included
3 live meetings
2 hrs 45 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
In this class students will learn how to make their own amigurumi cow using a simple single crochet. I teach via "tell, show, do, feedback" which is similar to the gradual release model used in schools. I will share a document that has written instructions that students can follow, as well in class I will model the crochet techniques (slip knot, slip stitch, single crochet and chain). Over the class meetings students will be able to crochet their cows and meet/converse with other students about their crochet hobbies. Day 1: Meet and go over colors, hooks and introductions. Students will learn how to do the slip knot, chain and single crochet to start their corn cobs. Day 2: Continue to work on corn adding safety eyes and mouth. Start work on husk. Day 3: Work on and finish corn husk. *While no previous experience is needed, students should have knowledge of slip knots*

Supply List
Yarn: 4 worsted in yellow, green & black for mouth. 5 mm hook, darning needle and stuffing, 2 10mm safety eyes. *students can make corn in any color of their choice, and can use bigger yarn/hook combinations.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Florida Gulf Coast University
Hello & Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in my classes and in me. I have my Bachelor's of Art: Fine Art from Florida Gulf Coast University, go Eagles! After four years of teaching visual arts and three years of teaching online, I am excited for every opportunity to teach young learners and help them grow. My classroom is one that is open and friendly, accepting of everyone regardless of skill level or knowledge, promotes creativity, and inspires learners to continue to learn. I love that "aha" moment when something we are learning clicks and a students eyes light up.
I am open to creating classes to meet the needs of students. Share your excitement and ideas! I love all medium: drawing, painting, sculpting, fiber arts and digital design. I also love cooking from scratch.
I try to tie in the history of the arts as I teach so that it builds a background for what we are learning. If we are learning about Surrealism, we might digitally travel to Spain and learn about the history of Salvador Dali and tour his museum. Then we will create a dream journal and our own artistic creations based on the style of the movement. I want my classes to inspire students of all ages to create.
I have always had a passion for the arts, traveling and gaming. I have been a gamer and have enjoyed tabletop games like GURPS and D&D, as well as online platforms like World of Warcraft and Asheron's Call.
I hope to have the opportunity to meet your learner soon! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
