Why Graphic Novels? ------------------------ Graphic novels have become very popular and are great for everyone! Graphic novels are excellent books for struggling readers. They are a way to build vocabulary as well as build confidence and reading stamina! If you have a child that loves reading graphic novels or is struggling with reading this class is for them! About This Class: -------------------- Learners will be expected to read one graphic novel a week. In each class, we will discuss the graphic novel. Each learner will have a chance to share their thoughts and feelings on the book. The discussion will build off of what we liked, what we didn't like, and our favorite and least favorite characters. We will talk about what made us laugh and what made us cry. We will also be relating the book to our own lives. Learners will gain not only gain confidence in their reading but will also gain the confidence to share their thoughts, feelings, and point of view. In each class we will: Introduce ourselves I will do a short book introduction I will then go in order and give each learner a chance to share or answer/ask questions Finally, I will introduce the next book and we will say our goodbyes Book List: ------------ We will discuss a new book each week so feel free to pick and choose which discussion you would like to participate in or read them all with me!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education from University of New Orleans
Hello,
I’m Mrs. Krause. I have a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education from the University of New Orleans and I’m certified in three different states in grade levels pre-k through third grade. I have two children. A daughter who is turning six this year as well as a son who is turning one soon.
I wanted to become a teacher because I love helping kids learn new concepts and skills. I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment in order for students to become confident and successful learners. I have over 10 years of experience teaching all subjects. I have 4 years of experience as a lead teacher in a traditional classroom.
I had my daughter in 2019 and that was when I started to look into teaching online. I have been with Outschool for over a year now and I absolutely love being able to connect with so many students. I am also fortunate that teaching at Outschool allows me the flexibility to stay at home with kids.
I love teaching math and listening to kids talk about their interests. I am excited to share my love and passion for learning with your child and I hope that it sparks their love of learning! See you in the classroom!
Kindly,
Mrs. KrauseReviews
