In this class, the learner will be introduced to a contraction.  Together and independently the learner will actively form a contraction and use an apostrophe correctly following the engaging slides. Learners will also practice writing contractions on a white board or piece of paper. After the lesson on contractions, we will create a contraction caterpillar using two words to form the legs and the contraction for the body. The teacher will walk each child through the steps as they create their caterpillar.
 ***Please have the print out cut out prior to class if possible.**

Hello! 

I’m very excited to be able to teach your child! My favorite subject to teach is reading. I graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor’s of Interdisciplinary Studies. I have an Early Childhood through fourth grade Texas certification, along with a supplementary English as Second Language certification. I have taught 11 years in second and third grade. For six years, I have taught English Language Arts and Reading. For two years, I taught on Outschool fulltime. This past school year, I returned back to the classroom to teach Prekindergarten. I have enjoyed being back in the classroom but look forward to teaching Outschool classes in my spare time. 

 I have spent many years preparing engaging and meaningful lessons.  I love hosting fun bingo games all while learning and reviewing sight words. I also offer other fun classes where we can move and wiggle and spell sight words. 

As an ELAR teacher, I know how critical phonics, sight words and comprehension is in building a strong reader. My goal as your child’s teacher is to help build the confidence they need to develop a love for reading.
