No need to worry! A Keeper of the Lost Cities Baking Class is here! During class students will have time to be guided and create recipes from Keeper books. Each week I will be guiding students ingredient by ingredient to complete their masterpieces. Depending on the time needed in class we may do some KOTLC triva, character discussion, open ended questions, upcoming news about the series and general discussion of the books. To see the recipes we are making please view the syllubus section. Please note that students may hear some spoilers about the books during class discussion while baking. *Every week the ingredients will be posted for the class that we are on. Please remember to have your email notifications turned on! *I will not always be baking/making at the same at the same time as the children are. I prefer to give my full attention to instruction and detail. This comes in especially handy if multiple students are needing help at the same time. (Helping students with each step so they can be independent.) I will be guiding them step by step and helping each student move at the pace that they need. *Please make sure that your oven is on and heated to the temperature needed for the days baking. *Parental guidance is needed if using electric appliances and for all use of the oven. (Placing things in, taking things out, taking treats out of the pan if needed.) *Depending on how long the recipe is we may end 5 mins earlier or go 5 mins over than is scheduled.
Learning Goals
During this class students will be able to discuss the KOTLC books and make recipes related to the books. Students can practice social skills and life skills in a safe and fun environment.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome!
When students are interested in what they are doing, learning they will WANT to learn! I hope that your students will love to learn and become lifelong learners. I want all children to feel comfortable, engaged, encouraged and have fun in my classes I have worked with students from ages 0-14 for over 20 years. I have held several other jobs than teaching which I adored but at this point this is my passion.
My teaching experience comes from multiple sources. Online I have taught thousands of children overseas to learn English through VIPKid. VIPKid (now VIPTeacher) is known for their vigorous standards and training. I have also taught for an elite online program, called Synthesis. Synthesis is an elite program created by the one of the founders of Ad Astra. (Ad Astra is the school that Elon Musk created at SpaceX.) I have also taught thousands of children right here on Outschool since 2020.
Offline teaching experience comes from teaching at a Montessori pre-school, teaching swim and gym classes, summer camps and Sunday school. I also have taught students with a wide range of mental and physical abilities. All students are welcome in my classes and I am willing to make accommodations if requested.
My education consists of a BA in psychology, a BA in Conflict Resolution, TESL, TEOFL, over 40 online teaching certificates, mental health first aid certification, and palliative care certification.
I have two children who are everything to me. I homeschool them and we love going on adventures together. In my spare time I love travelling, baking, camping, Disney, swimming, the beach, water activities, working out, reading and all things full of sparkle and glitter! You can always find me taking a course or earning some kind of certificate.
Come join me and let's have an adventure together!
