2-4 hours per week. I will always respond to all drawings and writing pieces submitted, although submitting any work is optional.Grading
Due to there being no rubric for this course, I do not provide numerical or letter grades; however, I will provide feedback to any work that your learner chooses to submit.Class Experience
US Grade Preschool - 1
📚 In this self-paced 5 week course, learners will watch videos that I record as I will be going over a letter a day, its sound, and so much more! ✏️If you choose to pay by week rather than the entire course upfront, you will automatically be provided with the first lessons upon enrollment and the following lessons will post every 7 days. These lessons are pre-recorded videos of myself completing each drawing. I have two cameras in my classroom. The first camera is recording me and the second is a document camera so the drawing can be easily viewed. Each video in this class will be focusing on one letter at a time. Students can view these 5 videos anytime during that week. ✨ Each video recorded by me consists of: 🍎 Letter Recognition 🍏 Letter Sound 🍎 Words / props beginning with the letter sound 🍏 Writing the letter in both upper- and lowercase using a primary writing journal 🍎 Simple/Basic directed drawing of a picture beginning with the letter of the week 🎨 Each letter of the alphabet will have an example of the craft template uploaded. Picture/Instructions. I complete the crafts in the videos for the first two letters. Every video/letter, has a craft. For example, the first craft for letter Aa is an alligator. All crafts only require simple materials: coloring materials, scissors, glue stick, and construction paper. Each letter craft has 1-2 pages of a template that I will have uploaded when you enroll in the class. All templates are provided. *Learners do not have to create any/all of the crafts. Crafts are not required. 🚨 Due to the nature of this class having a self-paced schedule, I do not have any due dates or requirements to submit work. Learners learn at their own pace and as much as they want to each week. If your learner submits any pictures from handwriting or scavenger hunts, I will always reply within 24 hours, at most with praise and feedback. (optional) ❓Why enroll in a self-pace class?❓ -Great for busy families with unpredictable schedules -Able to interact with students from all over the world without worrying about time zone differences -Students are able to pause vidoes as they work so they can learn at their own pace -Comfortable learning environment for students who dislike being on camera, but still want to learn and interact
Learning Goals
📚 Learners will practice upper- and lowercase letter names, letter sounds, beginning sounds in words, and letter formation when writing each letter.📚OPTIONAL: Learners can go on scavenger hunts around the house (or anywhere they go!) searching for items beginning with the current letter/letter sound
