Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 3
I scream, you scream, who wants to make some ice cream? One of the best summer treats is to enjoy some ice cream but sometimes that can take a long time and who wants to wait! Join me as we learn how to make ice cream in 30 minutes! How you ask? We will learn how to quickly bring the temperature of our mixture so it will freeze to the perfect consistency to enjoy. No need for a fancy ice cream machine when we can use everyday zip-lock bags to make our treat. While we are making our ice cream, we will use our arms and hands to shake, shake, shake, and move our bodies! We will discuss our favorite types of ice cream and make a graph everyone’s choices. 
We will use the scientific method to ponder what is happening. We will ask QUESTIONS, make HYPOTHESES, conduct EXPERIMENTS, and draw CONCLUSIONS as we progress through class. To begin each class, I will ask some questions about our cooking activity to get people excited about our experiment. We will work through our experiment/cooking activity together step by step. While we are working, every student will have the chance to answer questions and talk about their ice cream preferences. To end the class, we will all taste our delicious treat and gather together to talk about how we were able to do this! 
In this class we will learn, cook, move and groove, and of course have fun! Hope to see you and make our Ice Cream in a Bag!

Other Details

Parental Guidance
As we will be making ice cream please be aware if your child has any allergies to: Dairy/Milk. I have not made this recipe with other types of milk (almond, soy, coconut, oat) but if your learner would like to try they may! We will not be using any sharp objects or anything that requires heat. Learners will be asked to pour contents into various cups or baggies so it could be good to have some napkins available. All children are at different ages and abilities, and it is okay if your child needs a little extra guidance from an older sibling or parent during the pouring portions of this class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Tracy or as my students call me Miss Tracy! I currently teach ESL classes online to children ages 4-10 and love getting to meet so many new faces. Before that I spent my time in preschool classrooms getting to introduce the littlest learners (3-4 years old) the ways of school and getting used to school environments. The best part of teaching young students is I get to introduce them to the wonderful world of science, math, art, reading, and so much more! The smiles on their faces as they start to understand is priceless and keeps me wanting to come back and teach them more! 

I have a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education and am certified to teach K-6. I also have obtained a certificate in the religious Montessori program Catechesis of the Good Shepherd for the 3-6-year old child. I have worked in preschool settings for about the last 6 years but have nannied and tutored for children of all ages. I have been working with children in some capacity since the age of 12, or for those counting the last 17 years! Children make me happy and keep me smiling!

Children have wonderful minds and I love seeing them in action! I believe teachers are there to be the guiding lights but that children will lead how far they can be challenged! I love giving the children the building blocks to make connections and discover new things but letting them get there on their own when they are ready! Each child is unique and I love having a classroom full of students eager to learn and gain insight and knowledge not only from me as the teacher but their peers as well! Children are complex creatures who need nurtured and I love creating that through hands on learning experiences for their minds to grow and explore! 

Both of my parents are blind but that hasn't stopped either of them or myself from living life! They instilled a love for travel at a very young age and I yearn to travel again soon! They work hard and have always taught me that nothing can stop you! That is what I want to instill in my students!
