Ready to play Gartic phone?! This is the ultimate telephone game which includes drawing and socializing with others on a private and safe server! This game is similar to the telephone game you play with friends, but it is on an online gaming platform that is free, and no membership is required or needed. A private link will be sent during class time and then we can get started. All classes are inclusive for everyone of all abilities, but in this class writing and reading will be needed at a basic level to play the game. Players will need to come up with prompts and write them into the prompt field so others can read and draw their theme. Players will need to access the website during game play using the private link and the game is by invite only and for those enrolled in class. Join us for this fun and very funny game!! If the students want, we will switch to Roblox drawing games. Each week our topics will be learner directed. Since this is a gaming class, there will be no lesson, nothing building on the next week, so drop in and play with us at any time! **Please note, because this is a social class, children are not muted and are encouraged to talk, make friends, play games within the games. This means that the class could be lively and be loud. I encourage the students to wear headphones if this would disturb others in the house. If I need to mute, I will, to answer questions, help a student, or manage the class. But this is a social and fun class! Now, let's have fun!!!** Students are welcome to attend more than one session a week, if they want, because each class will be different students and new things to do and play! If you have any questions, feel free to message me!! Or need another time? Shoot me a message! Picture was created by Rebeka B. on Canva

I believe in igniting the fire for the love of learning and meeting children where they are at. I also believe the best way to learn is through play, hands on experiments, and having fun. My favorite things to teach are STEM, Math, facilitating safe gaming classes, and reading classes.
I attended University of Houston at Clear Lake and received my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education- Young Children with Disabilities and my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education- Children with Disabilities. I was the owner and founder of The Mind Body Lab, where I taught STEM, Art, and Yoga classes. I am also a private tutor.
I was the Assistant Director of Early Childhood camps for University of Houston at Clear Lake, and for 6 years I designed, developed, and implemented inclusive camps for young children. I have also taught a homeschool science classes at a local nature center, where I prepared lesson plans, wrote lessons that included STEM, and instructed an inclusive class.
I believe every child learns in a different way and the way I teach will reflect that. I plan my classes in a way where all learners needs are met, we do not all learn the same so I offer multiple ways to understand the subject.
I have homeschooled my children for the last 12 years. I am a first degree black belt and love everything martial arts!
My goal is to educate, include, enlighten, ignite, and help children explore this world.
