In this on-going 4 week class, your child will have fun building LEGO constructions according to themes. Each class will have a story read to them. The book will be based on the theme. Next, each child will do independent building of a particular design. Lastly, we will have show and tell. Each child will talk about what they made out of legos. For the first class, the focus during show and tell, will be on introductions and your child will have to introduce themselves. My first class is called Super builders, here we come! For story time, I will read a book about building skyscrapers. Each child will download LEGO building cards after their parent enrolls in the class. First, each child will get five minutes to build a tower they choose to build and after the bell goes off, they will count how high their tower is and tell the class their number. I will be encouraging them to help each other. Any child who can build buildings up to ten bricks or more will get a shout out of praise and a lego certificate of junior builder will be sent to them for their parent to download. Lastly, we will have show and tell and each child will talk about what they made out of legos. Also, I will take photos of their buildings at the end of class and email them to their parents. My second class is called Mystery build with LEGOs! For storytime, I will read two or three pages from a LEGO book about famous LEGO creations around the world. Each child will be asked to create anything. They will have ten minutes of building time. Next, your child will have show and tell time and they will talk about what they made out of legos. Lastly, I will take photos of their creations and email them to their parents. My third class is called Ready Set Go! For story time I will read a book about LEGO cars by Jeff Kinney. Next, each child will either make a duplo car or use a base of a duplo car and make it bigger. They will make a road or race track for their car. After building, each child will have show and tell and they will talk about what they made out of legos. Lastly, I will take photos of their creations and email them to their parents. My fourth class is called Moving day is here! For story time, I will read a book about building a house called Building a House by Bryan Barton. Next, each child will make a house with duplos and legos. Using a LEGO plate is recommended and they will be encouraged to add furniture, people, windows, doors, etc. After building time, each child will have show and tell time. They will talk about what their houses. Lastly, I will take photos of their houses and email them to their parents. I have attached a photos of different houses, vehicles, dinosaur and dragon with their LEGO pieces list for those of you who want to use them. This is optional. I love teaching and I am excited to have your child in my class. I genuinely enjoy getting students engaged with fun rewards, movement, and creative play. It is seeing the positive outcomes that come out of purposeful, intentional teaching that is so amazing.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! Welcome to my classroom! My name is Miss Rachel and I live in New York. I am currently teaching full time for Outschool. I have a passion for reading, math, science, art, and Lego play. I have taught acting and Lego building after school classes for pre-k thru second grade. My colleagues call me the ‘Queen of Play’ because of my energetic and creative type of instruction I use visuals during instruction to help my learners understand and follow directions. I genuinely enjoy getting students engaged with fun rewards, movement, and creative play.
I started with Outschool a year ago and I have been teaching for over ten years in many different pre-k classes as a Special Education teacher and a teacher working with neurotypical children. I have worked as a co-teacher in integrated classrooms and self-contained classes for children with autism; Parent trainer; a SEIT teacher and an EI provider. I received a bachelor’s degree in Special Education from NYU, and a master’s degree in Reading at Teacher’s College, Columbia University. These degrees gave me the knowledge to teach reading and writing for children Pre-K through middle school. I am a certified teacher for grades pre-k thru middle school. I am also a parent to two wonderful teenage boys and a dog. When I am not teaching, I love creating teaching products for my TPT store and Etsy shop. My hobbies are crafting, beading, walking my dog and reading.
Lastly, I have taught over 10 classes on Outschool and my favorite ones have been circle time, reading, dinosaur, and LEGO classes. I am an energetic, flexible, and creative teacher who is excited to start the new school year with your child.
