In this class we will listen to two read alouds of the classic tale Jack and the Beanstalk. The first is told by the Narrator and the second by the Giant. Not only are these stories entertaining, but offer a valuable lesson in comparing texts, deepening understanding of the characters, but with the right guidance, can teach valuable social skills. Adolescent conflicts are just as common as adult ones, and children often have a difficult time relating to others and taking responsibility for their actions; therefore they often get defensive and feel like a victim. In this class, through our book discussion, students will learn how situations can be represented in very different ways. This awareness will help students see situations more objectively, and be more understanding of others people’s point a view.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been teaching through play since 2005 when I started an in-home preschool. It was then that I realized I was born to teach. While home with my 4 small children, I earned my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. Since I became a NH Certified Teacher in 2014, I have taught 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade in public & charter school settings. I also coach soccer, have been a Girl Scout leader for 10 years, and operate After-school & Summer Enrichment programs. Joining Outschool is an exciting addition to my teaching opportunities and will allow me to reach more learners!
Some of my primary goals as a teacher are to instill the love of learning, the belief that learning is possible for all, and that challenges lead to progress. My favorite parts of teaching are hearing my learners laugh, embracing their growing personalities and learning styles, encouraging them to wonder and ask questions, overcoming challenges, and above all, sharing in their joy when they are successful.
