Hello and welcome to Let's Talk Animals! First: Check-in time - Teacher-led conversation. Possible music & movement activity. Next: Talk about the animal of the week. Look at pictures and videos of the animal in their natural habitat. Then, with the writing paper provided, learners will practice writing the animal's name. (Some writing experience is suggested) Lastly, learners will look at a picture of the animal, be reminded of key parts of the animal, and then will have an opportunity to draw a picture of the animal. This is for fun and experience. It is the learner's choice if they want to draw a picture of the animal or something else! They will be given time to share their drawing and share with the class. If there is additional time, they may share a special toy from their home (The teacher will inform learners if there is extra time). Lastly, a class goodbye! Schedule: Week of November 17th - November 23rd: Praying Mantis Children will be encouraged to talk and share about the animals or any personal connections with the animals. At the beginning of class, we will go over the four main expectations - "listening ears," "proud voices," "eyes on the screen," and "practice raising your hand." Learners will be encouraged to follow all these expectations throughout the class. Learners may be asked to seek help from their grown-ups to solve connection issues during class. Learners will be given a writing document 24 hours before class. Please make sure to have any tools ready. If you're unable to print out the copy - a blank piece of paper is fine! See you in class :) - Ms. Christie

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello!
I'm here on Outschool to offer some fun, interactive, and engaging Preschool and Kindergarten classes. Whether it be learning about animals or playing the classic game of Memory we are bound to have a great time in class.
I am from San Diego, California. I earned my Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education from Bowling Green State University! I recently earned my Master's Degree in Elementary Education from Hawaii Pacific University.
My goals for each class are for learners to be respected, to feel valued, to learn, to be safe, and to have a lot of fun! I take the time to get to know each learner on an individual basis.
I'm also an Outschool parent. I love the positive impact the teachers have on this platform my daughter has enjoyed her classes very much!
My two daughters, ages 8 and 5, keep me BUSY and we're always going on fun adventures.
My favorite animal is a sea turtle, and I love frozen yogurt and visiting museums. You can find me outside exploring a new place or quietly painting my nails.
Look forward to seeing you in class very soon.
