Class Experience

We will read Mrs. Bowes's book, "Don't be a Dork!  Eat with a Fork" and will discuss things such as chewing with your lips closed, saying "Please", "Thank you", and "Excuse Me", using a napkin, using a knife safely, not  double-dipping, and much more!  

This class is a video presentation with narration and discussion of each topic.  There is also a quiz at the end to assess understanding and a printable certificate that can be personalized with the child's name.

The approximate time to complete this lesson is 30 minutes.  Learners are welcome to post in the classroom if they have any questions or would like to share their thoughts.  I will gladly respond to questions and comments as posted.

Hello!  My name is Mrs. Candice and I love teaching and learning!  After many years of classroom teaching, I've helped hundreds of children learn to love reading and gain confidence in early math.  I've also fallen in love with online teaching and am excited to help even more children using this powerful medium!  I believe in making learning fun and supporting a high level of learner engagement!  
I love writing children's books that teach academic and social concepts using stories that kids can relate to.  I believe in the power of stories to teach content and in hands-on learning to strengthen understanding. 
I look forward to working with you and your child!
