Join us as we learn all about life as an astronaut! In this one-time class students will learn about what it takes to become an astronaut, what life is like in space, the different jobs that astronauts must perform, and what life is like for astronauts upon reentry to Earth's atmosphere. We will also watch an actual space shuttle launch and discuss what that is like for astronauts. The class is taught with the use of a slideshow, discussion, and pictures and videos. There is also a journal page that students can use to reflect on their learning after class. Make sure to access and print this from the classroom page. This is an interactive and fun class to be a part of and is perfect for young learners who are curious about life as an astronaut!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Ilissa and I am so excited to work with your child in the online classroom! I am passionate about creating an engaging and fun classroom environment. I was an elementary classroom teacher for nine years before taking time to stay home with my two boys, who are three and one. While teaching, I taught kindergarten, first, third, and fourth grade, and have a passion for helping students achieve success in the areas of reading and writing. In addition to this, some of my favorite topics to teach are those that have to do with social-emotional skills. Seeing students implement strategies into their everyday lives that will help them to be successful into adulthood brings me great joy.
When I’m not teaching, I love being outside with my family running, hiking, and biking. We recently moved to Michigan from Colorado and love exploring all that Michigan has to offer!
My classroom is a happy and engaging place to be. Students will all be able to actively participate in our learning throughout each class. I hope to see you soon!
