Class Experience

US Grade 1
First Grade Reading and Spelling 
So many friends reached out and asked me to make a once-a-week class! This class is designed to give your learner extra support in their reading journey. This class is following a completely different schedule than my 3-day first grade curriculum class, so this class is an excellent review class for all my current students! 
We will learn sights words, and other beginning reading skills. We will work on our reading comprehension and understanding the parts of a story and story elements. We will learn about literature and informational text. We will work on our phonics, fluency, and word recognition. We will learn and practice various grade level appropriate spelling patterns. 
Each week, we will learn a digraph, blend, or diphthong and practice spelling words with this sound. Then we will go into a reading group text. 
Activities and skills we will work on include and are not limited to: 
• We will be learning to read CVC words, blends, digraphs, rhyming words, segmenting, blending, and identifying syllables in words.
• Matching letters to sounds and using other methods to figure out unfamiliar words when reading and writing 
• Learning and using new words 
• Reading sight words 
• We will be learning to read with foundational reading skills including, blends, digraphs, rhyming words, segmenting, blending, and identifying syllables in words.
• We will be learning different vowels rules to read CVCE and CVVC words. 
• Reading Comprehension 
• Identifying characters, settings, and major events in a story 
• Recognizing the person, place, thing, or idea that an illustration shows 
• Understanding parts of a sentence, how to fix/edit a sentence
• Various spelling patterns
• Participating in discussions by listening and taking turns speaking

Welcome Prospective Parents and Guardians, 
I am so happy you are here! My name is Brittney Erickson, I am a mom of five and an educator. I’ve been in the education field for over 14 years. I’ve taught from Pre-K to 4th grade. Kindergarten has a special place in my heart, I taught it for 7 years! 
I love hands on learning and learning through play! I love to teach ABC's, letters, numbers, science, arts and crafts, book clubs, legos, and anything Disney themed! I love to cultivate a safe environment, where students can learn through play! I am so thankful that you are willing to invest in your child's education. I work hard to create classes where your child and I can build a relationship, and I can truly come alongside them in their educational journey. 

I have high expectations of my fellow teachers and myself in the lessons we provide. I have taken the initiative to create fun, engaging, interactive lessons, and I have gone above and beyond to create lessons with correct permissions and licenses to utilize fun images, themed lessons, and excellent music. 

I myself am a homeschooling mom, and love everything Outschool has to offer! We personally love to use Outschool in our home! I can't wait to learn, play and be creative together! 

I look forward to seeing you soon! ❤️

Class Policies: 
1. Unless the class specifically requires for more than 1 learner ( example: my halloween party or social club). I will still hold class for one student. My children get so excited for their classes, I would never want to cancel on an excited student ready to learn! 

2. I will admit students to the classroom right at the scheduled time, even if not every student is present. If there is a technical issue and I cannot enter the classroom, I will contact parents through the classroom page and I will also contact Outschool.

3. I will always finish class as close to the scheduled amount of time as possible. Depending on low enrollment numbers or extended discussion for very active speakers, the class may run a few minutes short or long. 

4. If no students are present in the classroom when class is meant to begin, I will wait 10 minutes before exiting. Once I exit the classroom, the class will be considered finished.
