Class Experience

US Grade 2
This class will bring Super Stories to the next level! Instead of copying the brainstormed story, in this class, students will write on their own. Each week, we will start class with plenty of brainstorming ideas and a format to follow. It is then up to the students to write on their own. I will be sure to provide spelling help and ideas along the way! In the last 5 minutes of class, the students are welcome to read their final product. This is aimed for first and second grade writing level, and the expectations will be simple: a few sentences, with a chance to add a picture to go along with it. 

Come join anytime! Each week, we will create something new, with new topics, so it's easy to come and go as needed.

We will run on a 4-week cycle, completing different formats of writing each week.


October 13-Week 4: Book Report 
October 20-Week 1: Story (Problem/Solution)
October 27-Week 2: Narrative writing
Week 3: Journal Entry (Personal Story)

Supply List
Be sure to have paper ready to write.
Also, have a pencil with a good eraser.
Some students will enjoy the paper with a place to write on the bottom and draw a picture on the top. However, they can use regular notebook paper and have a piece of paper with no lines to draw their picture on. (The picture is completely optional.)

Teacher expertise and credentials
Minnesota Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello! I am excited to be your child's teacher. 
I love to teach in any capacity: especially reading, writing and grammar classes. 

Teaching is my passion! I have been teaching for 23 years everything from early childhood to college & adults. Not only have I taught in elementary schools, but I have been homeschooling my children for the past 12 years and working in several homeschool coops as well. For my career, I teach English as a Second Language to adults.

I am very familiar with the ins and outs of the English language, from the basics of phonics & reading to college writing, and everything in between! (Like past participles 😄)  My philosophy of education is that every child can learn! I would love to work with your child and help them succeed! Even if your child is not reading or writing in a way you would like, they are amazing & smart! Education is a tool to help them share what they know with the world! Let's get started!
