Students will practice language arts skills using theme-based lessons. Each lesson has its unique design and focuses on different skills, so students will not get bored. Each lesson includes six standard-based ELA/Reading activities that students practice in small groups. Also included are fun facts and jokes for each lesson. I will guide the lessons and each student will have an opportunity to participate in answering the skill questions. This is a perfect review/reinforcement class for students in upper elementary grades. The lesson categories include: Days 1 & 2: Animals: Dolphins, Big Cats, Llamas, Penguins Days 3 & 4 Mythical Creatures: Unicorns, Dragons, Mermaids **A mixture of 3rd-5th grade literacy skills will be practiced each week to include: parts of speech, synonyms, antonyms, homonyms, figurative language, analogies, sentence structure, editing, text-dependent reading comprehension questions, and much more. Different skills are reinforced during multiple lessons. Come join the fun as students keep their literacy skills sharp by practicing in a fun and lively group setting where all have the opportunity to participate.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Iowa Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello, my name is Kathleen Bernath Jenkins and I am a recently retired elementary public school teacher in Missouri. I have a bachelor's degree in elementary education and a master's degree in differentiated instructional methods. Most recently, I have taught fourth-grade students the core academic skills: reading, grammar, writing, math, science, and social studies.
I have a passion for teaching children the skills needed for them to be successful citizens. I believe all children can achieve success at school by differentiating instructional methods, which allows for individual growth and expression. My approach to teaching is to focus on best practices, those proven to be successful across all educational settings: teacher modeling and interaction with students, setting clear objectives at the start of each lesson, encouraging group participation, and debriefing together at the close of a lesson.
Besides my love of teaching, I also have a greenhouse and enjoy growing and propagating plants, especially tropical and rare varieties!Reviews
