Adult guidance is suggested when students are using sharp objects, such as sewing pins or scissors. I may share YouTube videos in the classroom for additional guidance or pre-recorded lessons as the need arises. You will not require an account to view these videos, and by default will play as an embedded video in the Outschool classroom.
YouTube videos may be referenced, particularly if students request additional information or patterns not originally included in my curriculum. I may also reference this pattern by blogger "Jenny and Teddy" for students who are ready to attempt a more challenging project: https://www.jennyandteddy.com/free-amigurumi-pattern-two-little-teddy-bears-amanda-and-annie/
