Hello! Thank you for considering me to be a part of your child’s education. In this course, we will learn the names and sounds of the letters of the alphabet and learn about new animals each week. The primary focus of this class is to learn how to write the alphabet (lowercase) and practice the sound of each letter. During each class, we will focus on THREE letters and THREE animals. In the provided PDF packet, we will write the letters and draw a picture of the animal of the day. The PDF packet will not have animals in it, your child will draw the animal to the best of their ability. At the end of the class, your child will have an animal alphabet book! We will have 12 total classes. Class 1 - Sing Alphabet, Color Book Cover Class 2 - A B C Class 3 - D E F Class 4 - G H I Class 5 - J K L Class 6 - Review Class 7 - M N O Class 8 - P Q R Class 9 - S T U Class 10 - V W X Class 11 - Y Z Class 12 - Review I believe that children learn best when they take control of their own learning. I will be sure to encourage conversation but also want to create a comfortable, fun, learning environment for each student. I will provide praise for their efforts and creations. I completely understand that some children are more shy than others so there will be no pressure to speak or answer questions if they do not want to, they can silently work along with us.

Teacher expertise and credentials
**After over 3 years with Outschool, I will be taking a break starting September 27, 2023 to handle family matters. I appreciate all of the families that have trusted me to be a part of their child's education. I hope to see you soon!**
Hello! My name is Stefanie. I am new to Outschool, but not new to online teaching. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education. I am a mom of 2 children (ages 6 and 5) and live in Ohio. I have been a classroom teacher as an intern, a preschool teacher, a teacher's aide, a substitute teacher. I have been a nanny and taught online to children in China before joining Outschool. I taught them how to speak and write in English. We also explored math, science, social studies, and the culture in America. I have been teaching online for a three years and LOVE it! I have taught over 1,200 classes on Outschool and would love to meet your child!

One of my online students recently asked me, "Why did you want to become a teacher?" This child didn't realize how important this question was to me. I was taken aback because it had been a while since someone asked me WHY. I explained to her that watching someone learn something for the first time, or UNDERSTAND something after attempting to understand it is why I do this. One large goal and part of my classroom management is to allow the students to understand that they should be apart of their learning. I am not only teaching to them, I'm allowing them to be a big part of their education.
I set expectations for myself as a teacher and a person. I want to be accountable for my actions, responsible for my education, to teach with passion detail, and encouragement. My main goal is to display past goals and expectations through achievements. Though we are learning through video, I want to incorporate fine and large motor development opportunities, real-life experiments, and experimental learning. I will provide a loving, respectful, safe, and supportive risk-free environment.
I hope to see your child in my classroom soon! Thank you for taking the time to read this! -Teacher Stefanie
