In this semester long flex class, students will learn everything they need to know to have a successful beginning in Kindergarten from a real kindergarten teacher!  We will cover letters, numbers, shapes, colors, and practice fine motor skills.  Learning is accomplished through the use of pre-recorded class videos (NO LIVE MEETINGS), so you can choose what time of day this best fits into your schedule!  This course is perfect for those that are homeschooling and would like some support for their child to learn their letters and sounds to begin reading.

This class is ideal for those at a preschool level that will be entering kindergarten and those that are currently in kindergarten.

During this semester long course, we will cover math and reading with a focus on letter recognition and sounds (Aa-Zz), blending sounds to read words, uppercase and lowercase letter formation, writing numbers (1-20), number recognition, counting, and 2D shapes!

A FLEX class does not rely on live meetings but instead has videos, worksheets and other posts in the Outschool classroom for learning to take place. This is perfect for learning letter sounds because your child can practice over and over again.  This also gives your child the opportunity to learn at their own pace and meet their needs.

❇️Each week we will focus on two letters, two numbers, one shape, and one color.  I will post 4 videos a week (Monday-Thursday) as well as links to additional content to keep your child engaged and always learning.  The videos will allow me to teach the content for the week and explain the activities your child will complete each day.  I will share additional links and printables needed for each lesson, so there is not a need to search for extra activities.  Friday will be the day to wrap everything up, make sure all lessons are completed, content is mastered, and submit your work for grading so I can see your progress.
