I have been tutoring students ages 5 through 14 for five years on a full-time basis. I also run a STEM Days program for students ages 3 through 13. One of my focus areas is literacy standards that help students write well in a fun and engaging manner. I have experience working with students needing special attention, including but not limited to English Language Learners and students diagnosed with ADHD and autism.
No homework. There are additional practice opportunities in the resource provided. Upon enrollment, you will receive access to the class resource for in-class and out-of-class supports. You can use the bookmarks and table of contents to organize your additional lesson plans. The slides can be used to teach the lesson. I've provided the definitions, along with examples to go over with your student(s) for additional practice.
1 file available upon enrollmentOptional: We will use nearpod.com to facilitate the learning experiences during live classes. Nearpod access does not require a subscription by families. Instead, a link will be provided, and students will log online using their first name and last initial only. Students may participate in the course without the use of the Nearpod program. Optional: Families are encouraged to provide students with a notepad and pencil if they'd like to practice handwriting during the live session.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Formative Assessments: Independent activities can be used to assess literacy (e.g., deciphering letters, sounds, words, grammar, and penmanship). Classroom Assessments: Complete sentence activities can be used to assess literacy (e.g., deciphering letters, sounds, words, grammar, and penmanship).
30 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
This live one-time class is geared towards meeting the Grade 1 literacy standards mentioned in the objectives. Students that need additional practice with adjectives and writing complete sentences will benefit from taking this course.
