Through interaction and discussion with the teacher and other learners, students will learn all about sloths through in a welcoming environment where everyone feels included and important. Students will be invited to share what they know about sloths before we dive into all sorts of interesting facts about their activity, predators, pooping cycles, sleeping habits and feisty personalities, just to name a few topics. We will have an open discussion, use slides to play a game of True or False and then together we will draw a sloth! Students will leave the class with some animal science knowledge about sloths and the ability to draw one! Learners will also be provided with a couple handouts they can color after class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello :) My name is Shaya and I am a passionate online teacher with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing who specializes teaching children ages 5 to 13. I have 17 years experience supporting students both in the classroom and in the 1:1 setting focusing mainly on math, reading, and writing. We use science and arts combined with an exploration of concepts to develop a love for learning. I have two children of my own who I have always homeschooled, ages 6 and 9.
I am TESOL, TEO and TEFL certified. I have been teaching children online for the past 8 years. In all my teaching settings we work on meeting developmental milestones, concepts and skills through interactive circle time, morning meeting groups or show and tell sharing. I include topics such as sight words, phonics, fluency, letters, writing stories, creativity, and more. In my classes we use an all accepting, discussion based approach where every child feels welcome and important. I am committed to guiding learners in a warm and welcoming environment where they enjoy learning and want to come back.
In my free time you can find me playing outdoors with my kids or taking people on tours through the animal sanctuary I volunteer at - I love animals! I have worked at an animal sanctuary for many years now and therefore have up close and sometimes all-too-personal experiences with all the animals that I am passionate to teach about. I also teach classes online and therefore enjoy combining the two and bringing out that same passion in children.
I hope to see your child in class soon! :)
