1 live meeting
45 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
If you know the basics of paper bead rolling, this paper pendent is the next step to crafting a finished jewelry piece. After a brief review of the basics, you will learn how to make a pendent to use in jewelry or other craft projects. This 'after-school' class incorporates fine motor skills including the use of scissors to cut thin strips of paper, twisting glue tops, squeezing, mixing, painting and manipulating paper in a specific manner. Accommodations, tips and tricks will be shown along the way for EZ Beadzy fun! Participants will be invited to discuss and share with the instructor and other participants throughout the class. Class Policy: 1) Have Fun!! 2) Classes will begin and end at the scheduled times. 3) If there are no learners in the classroom at the start time, the instructor will wait 10 minutes before ending the class. Please see Outschool's policy for late or missed classes. 4) To ensure safety and security, all participants are required to turn on their cameras at the beginning for an identity check. In addition, participants are expected to talk during this class, so a working microphone is required. 5) Please see Outschool's policies for multiple learners from the same household. 6) Parents are welcome to be nearby to assist with IT issues or fine motor skills, however, please remain off-camera and off-mic.

Teacher expertise and credentials
New York Teaching Certificate in Special Education
Hello! My name is Lorraine and I absolutely love being a teacher! My masters degree is in Special Education which has allowed me to teach some of the most impressive humans on this planet!
As a certified teacher PreK-6th Grade, I have lead classrooms for over 15 wonderful years. I truly enjoy my current role as an Early Intervention Specialist and Special Education Itinerant Teacher (SEIT) for toddlers and preschoolers. I also worked for 15 amazing summers at a day camp where I was a Creative Arts Specialist creating curriculum and teaching Nature, Jewelry and Cooking programs for campers ages 3-13. I also present STEM/STEAM classes at libraries, museums and after-school programs. One of my super powers is making adaptations and accommodations so every child can participate in the classes I offer for maximum fun.
My philosophy on teaching and learning can be summed up in one word "PLAY!" Through play, kids develop physically, cognitively, emotionally and socially. There's evidence-based science to back that up. How fun those studies must have been! My class offerings reflect both my play philosophy and topics I personally enjoy learning about. The arts and sciences are my favorite to teach and learn about because there are new creations and discoveries at every turn. Eureka moments can happen to anyone, anytime and anywhere!
A little more about me: I'm a big fan of ice cream, taking nature hikes to study plants, animals and insects along the way, finding lots of cool & creative ways to reduce/reuse/recycle and reading mystery books. Often, I sing to myself as a strategy while doing not-so-fun tasks to make the time go faster. I am so happy to be an instructor on Outschool and looking forward to seeing you in one of my virtual classes!
