In this ongoing class, students will use materials throughout there home to build and construct a specific object. They will use prompting question to help them brain storm on how to construct the object. Class will begin by giving them the task that they need to do. The student will be given the opportunity to gather materials they think they need in order to complete there task. Before completing there task they will need to brain storm and draw out what they believe will work. While working the teacher will be asking questions to help improve there construction. Once the object is built they will be asked to do a specific task to the object. This is an activity, not a discussion, based class. Students will be completely engaged and interactive in these class

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! Before I was a virtual teacher, I was an elementary Adaptive Special Education teacher and Emotionally Behavior Disorder teacher. I have experience teaching math, reading, writing, STEM, science, social studies, and behavior. I recievied my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Washburn University and my Master's degree in Adaptive Special Education from Fort Hays University
My classes are based on needs my students needed more work on in the public school system. Such as reading strategies, writing, and math, Also I will be teaching classes that my students enjoyed such as science experiments and STEM activities.

As a teacher I believe that everyone is able to learn and succeed you just have to figure out how the child learns. That child may learn kinetically where he or she needs to move around, visually, or auditory. No matter what it is it is my job to find what helps your child learn and we will use their strengths in order to grow and succeed in the classroom.
If your student has an IEP or 504 plan, please let me know before class if you wish for any accommodations to be put in place and I would be happy to do so!*
