What's included
1 live meeting
30 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
Fans of Mo Willem's Elephant and Piggie books will have a blast in this fun and interactive class. During this class we will: 1. Practice three different kindergarten sight words through simple, fun activities. 2. Learn strategies to help make learning sight words more fun and active. These strategies can be applied to additional sight words outside of class. 3. Hunt for sight words while we read "I Really Like Slop!" by Mo Willems. 4. Practice letter-sound correspondence by identifying different letter sounds as we make our own imaginary slop together! This class is perfect for children beginning to learn sight words and letter sounds, two of the first steps to learning to read. It will be full of lots of fun, movement and silliness. Students are invited to bring as a favorite stuffy or soft toy to help with our sight word practice. After class a PDF and printable game will be emailed out to allow you to continue to practice sight words beyond our class. Please note: this class is not endorsed or promoted by the author or publisher.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Rachel Call and I believe we live in a big, bright beautiful world! I have traveled and lived in over 25 different countries on five different continents and I am passionate about culture, language and diversity. I believe it is important for children to learn to embrace our differences, both large and small, by learning to see the world with different lenses.
I believe learning should be fun, active and engaging. I think children learn best when they feel valued and can fully enjoy the learning process. I love to read (especially fun children's books like Elephant and Piggie!) and I love making kids laugh! I strive to offer both an immersive and inclusive experience in my classes.
I have taught social studies, English and math both in the brick and mortar classroom but also as an online ESL teacher. I have a Bachelors of Science in Sociology with minors in African Studies and International Development from Brigham Young University. I am also a wife and a mama to two spunky little girls and one moody little cat.
