US Grade 3 - 5
Cursive Writing and Animal Class!
In this class, each week we will learn about a new animal - what makes that animal unique, their diet, habitat, cool and unusual facts about that animal, and how important they are to our planet. 
There will be a worksheet for learners to write the name of the Animal of the Week, what they eat, and what makes them awesome (choosing their favorite fact/facts from the lesson to write). A worksheet will be provided in the classroom for learners to print prior to each lesson. 
After learning about the animal, learners will follow along step-by-step as we write the name of the animal in cursive. We will practice letter formation, line slant, spacing, size, and rhythmic flow. 
Writing in cursive has many benefits - it improves hand-eye coordination, memory, focus, provides a flow of thought while writing, and activates different neurological pathways than typing on a keyboard. 
My teaching style is encouraging and fun! I am passionate about appreciating each and every animal on this planet, as well as the importance of making sure that cursive doesn't become a lost art - this class is a combination of those two passions!

Learning Goals

Classroom goals: To learn more about the wonderful, cool, strange, unique, and important creatures sharing this planet with us, practice the fundamentals of cursive writing, to write a new animal name each week, to gain confidence, and make friends!

Hello! Welcome to Outschool! 
My name is Teacher Monica. 
 I believe each child has tremendous potential to change the world for the better, and I will constantly encourage your child to put forth their best effort. The growth mindset is an idea that is incorporated into all lessons!
Through engaging, fun lessons, I will do my best to ensure that learners are equipped with the fundamental skills needed to succeed in life. 
I have previously taught pre-kindergarten, second grade, and on various online platforms. I have an Associate's Degree in Communication, a Bachelor's Degree in Liberal Studies (with a minor in Organizational Leadership), and have completed the Teaching English as a Foreign Language program (from the International TEFL Academy). 
I look forward to helping your learner grow!
