US Grade 2 - 5
In this one-time 30 minute class students will test their knowledge of the 50 states and their capitals while using strategic skills to stay atop of the leader board. Students will answer multiple choice questions on their own at their own pace. Each student will get exposure to the questions multiple times to ensure mastery and will be able to see the correct answer when the question has been answered incorrectly. They will earn in-game cash by answering questions correctly and can reinvest their money by purchasing upgrades & powerups. No downloads needed. Students will enter the game by a code given to them in the class. Students should be comfortable with having 2 tabs open – One for the zoom meeting and one for the game or they may prefer to play the game on a second device (iphone or ipad). Since the students may be unfamiliar with the game and the logistics of how to play, we will play two games (first game = 10 minutes, second game = 15 minutes). After the class ends, I will email the learner state capitals they got incorrect so they can spend time learning those states and capitals. Through game play students will test their knowledge of the US States and their capitals, interact with other students, and strategically plan to stay on top of the leader board. Class Agenda: *Instructions for Game Play will be posted in the classroom. *Game 1 (10 minutes) *Game 2 (15 minutes)

Teacher expertise and credentials
West Virginia Teaching Certificate
Hi Everyone. Welcome to Outschool. My name is Karen and I’m excited to be able to bring my love of teaching online.
I have a Bachelor of Arts in Education from Fairmont State University in West Virginia. For 10 years I educated students in Family and Consumer Sciences. I love teaching FACS courses because they help students to develop the essential life skills and knowledge to lead their best lives. It also offers students education to career pathways in:
Education and Training
Human Services
Interior design
Foods and Nutrition
Child and Family Development
In addition to Family and Consumer Science I am certified to teach Safety and Drivers Education, PreK – 5th grade and TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). A love of mine is traveling, but not just traveling, having lived in 10 different states, I have immersed myself into the culture of the areas and discovered how each state has a uniqueness all their own. I hope to also share my passion for travel and what makes each state one of a kind.
My teaching style is what I call “structured fun”. When teaching my students about how to educate Preschool children we discuss about how they learn through play. I don’t believe that should just apply to Pre-Schoolers. My classes include a lot of interaction through discussions, games, projects, and fun quizzes.
Hope to see you in my class ready to learn, interact, and have fun!Reviews
