Do you know how many earths would fit into the sun? How long would it take to get to Pluto? What is space junk? In this ongoing class we will learn the answers to these questions as well as learn all about stars, moons, astronauts, the planets in our solar system, and many fun space facts. Along with learning these awesome space facts we will also be learning reading strategies, sight words, and writing skills. We will sound words out and practice writing on white boards (paper will work too if you don't have a white board.) We will focus on at least one phonics skill during each class including blends, silent e words, vowel teams, and sh/ch/th words. After I give my mini lesson on our skill of the day students will have a chance to read a word or two. Then we will write some words on a white board or paper. *I also have a beginning reading class with the same fun space themes. Message me for more info. Week of July 18: Space Junk and The Sun, Reading Skill: blends such as bl, fl, and cr Week of July 25: Exploring Earth/Weather/Animals in space, Reading Skill: Silent e words Week of Aug. 1: Moon and Gravity, Reading Skill: Vowel Team Week of Aug. 8: Mercury and Messenger, Reading Skill: ar words Week of Aug: 15: Jupiter and Juno, Reading Skill: or words Week of Aug. 22: SpaceX Rockets, Reading Skill: ir, er, ur words Week of Aug. 29: Mars and Rovers, Reading Skill: Vowel Team Week of Sept. 5: Nebula and Hubble Telescope and Pictures, Reading skill: aw, au Week of Sept. 13: Pluto, Reading Skill: oi oy Week of Sept 20: Stars, Reading Skill: multi syllable words (with a focus on vowels) More classes to come! This class would be best for children who know most of their letters and are interested in learning to read. *This class is a mix two of my current most popular classes: Kindergarten and First Grade Reading Skills & Guided Reading with Animal Facts and Exploring Our Universe: Learn to Read While Discovering Outer Space! I have taken some of the content from these classes to build this new space class! :)

Teacher expertise and credentials
Florida Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I absolutely love teaching! In my class we have fun learning to read, write, and practice math skills. In addition to academic classes, I also enjoy teaching character building concepts such as perseverance, kindness, and self control. I have been a kindergarten teacher for the last 14 years and a preschool teacher for several years before earning my degree in Early Elementary and my Masters in Special Education from the University of Florida. I teach classes to help young learners build confidence, continue their curiosity of new skills and have fun learning. I love teaching children about animals and I have some fun guided reading classes where we also learn amazing animal facts. I have had training on best practices in teaching, growth mindset, character counts training, and have taken several reading endorsement classes. I use songs, silly stories, and chants to help learners learn new skills. I hope to foster a love of learning and help your child be the best they can be.
I started teaching on Outschool in 2020 and I have met the most wonderful learners these past few years. Along with teaching amazing learners on Outschool I also homeschool my son who has Down syndrome. I have also developed a reading and learning program for my son and other learners with intellectual disabilities. I have been tutoring young learners with Down syndrome with my program as well as teaching a class to a small group of learners with Ds at our local Down syndrome association once a week.
I am so excited to teach and encourage your learner! My goal is to make learning fun and give your learner the tools and practice they need to learn new skills. I love using a multi sensory approach to learning.Reviews
