Hi wonderful families! 
I would love to have your learner join me in this fun writing class! In this ongoing class, we will learn to write and illustrate a sentence together. I love to teach in creative and fun ways to engage all learners. I have a Mystery Box and will give the learners clues so they can guess what is inside. This item inside is what we will write about!  We will describe it with adjectives and go through the writing process together. As we write, we will learn about spelling patterns, phonics, vowels, letter sounds, and sight words. When writing we will learn about using a capital letter at the beginning of our sentence, putting spaces between words, and ending our sentence with a punctuation mark. 

While we are writing we will use our knowledge of the letter sounds to help us build words and learn about phonics rules, spelling, vowels, diphthongs, digraphs, blends, and sentence structure.  

When we are finished writing our sentence, we will edit our writing and then draw a picture about our sentence. 

At the end of our class, all the learners will be invited to share their writing and picture with our class. If they don't want to share, that is completely fine! We will applaud and celebrate each writer! 

I love to celebrate all of the writers so we will give positive feedback about their writing and pictures! My goal is to help instill a love of writing and drawing in each writer, to help learners to feel successful and to have fun writing!!!

We will learn to write and read simple sentences such as:
The _____ is 
The ____ has _____
_____ have _______
I like ______
_______ are _______
I am _________
I can _________

Come join me for a fun and engaging writing class! My goal is for all children to love writing and for them to learn that writing is fun! Please let me know if you have any questions!

Hi! I love to teach preschool and early elementary classes and strive for ways to make learning fun and exciting! It is my goal to celebrate all learners and help them to love learning. Teaching phonics, reading, writing and math skills are my absolute favorite!

I graduated from Hiram College in Ohio with a BA in Elementary Education and a Reading Endorsement which means that I did extra course work so I could become a reading specialist if I chose.  After college, I taught kindergarten, 1st and 3rd grade for a total of 8 years. During that time, I was honored to be selected as Teacher of the Year for my elementary school and finalist for county wide Teacher of the Year in Nashville, TN. In addition to teaching, I was also a curriculum developer and workshop presenter for 5 years.  I created reading, writing, and math curriculum for the county, and then trained elementary teachers K-5 how to teach that curriculum in their classrooms. I also worked for a publishing company developing reading and math units. I stayed home with my children when they were young and then taught a transition to kindergarten class for 6 years. 

I love teaching children and believe that learning should be fun and engaging!  Children learn best when they are laughing, smiling, singing, drawing, doing hands-on activities, moving, and having fun!  For me, there is no greater joy than helping a child grow and learn! I love to play games, sing and make learning fun! 

One fun fact about me is that I love animals and have many stuffed animals. My stuffed animals love to join me in my classes. If your learner has a special stuffed animal we would love to have it join us too!
