US Grade 1
In this course, we'll jump into first-grade language arts, math, and science. Over the course of 16 weeks, learners will dive into topics such as the scientific method, the two basic functions of addition and subtraction, reading comprehension, and much more! My teaching style encourages learners to be active participants in their learning by using the info they already have to build upon what we're uncovering in class. Children will have the opportunity to engage with me by giving their thoughts, answering questions, and participating in games during the class. I'm so happy to have you here :)
Learning Goals
Learners will be able to add and subtract one and two-digit numbers.
Learners will be able to listen to a story and point out important details.
