Whether your learner is already passionate about writing or you are looking to cultivate a passion for writing join our class! Students will have the opportunity to collaborate, build upon their pre-existing skills, and develop a deeper love for the art of writing. We will begin class by introducing ourselves and writing our name at the top of our paper. Using prompts provided, or their own ideas, writers in this class will discuss their thoughts with the group and work together to help each other set up an outline for their writing. We will provide a special focus on organization and parts of a story in our writing. We will focus on having a beginning, middle and end while using transition words in between. I want to provide learners that take this class with as much freedom of creativity as possible. I will provide suggestions and meet each learner at their own ability while helping them expand upon the unique skill set they each bring with them. So, writers are welcome to use sentence frames provided or even create a shared piece with me if they are new to writing. If there is time we will draw a picture to accompany our writing. We will conclude our lesson by sharing our work! Again, students are welcome to use the prompts I provide or write freely with a similar idea that comes to mind. Examples of prompts that may be suggested in class: - Your pet is in charge of YOU for the day. What happens? - Write a short story about what it might be like if you woke up one morning with a mermaid tail. - If you had $1,000, what would you buy and why? - Create your very own monster- is it kind, big, scary, hairy? Tell me all about it and draw a picture. Materials needed: -paper (lined or not! Though lined will help to keep our sentences aligned.) -a writing utensil (pencils preferred) If you'd like to take this class on a more regular basis please check out my weekly class: Little Learners Creative Writing Club. Disclaimer: If there are zero learners enrolled 24 hours before a meeting time the meeting is presumed to be canceled.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Oregon Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello!
My name is Ms. Taylor and I am so excited to meet you! I hope that you decide to take one of my classes. Before you do, here is a bit about me...
Educational Background--
I graduated college with a BS in Elementary Education and ESOL endorsement. This endorsement helps me to teach English Speakers of Other Languages but also provides me with more enhanced skills I can use to adapt my teaching for any learner struggling with English, reading and comprehension. Since then I have also received a TESOL certificate. I have been a brick and mortar teacher for six years now as my full time job. When I have time I love to teach online too! Between Outschool and an additional online tutoring company I have been teaching online for about four years now. I have taught students aged 4-12 both online and in school physically. For the current academic school year I am teaching 4th grade for the fourth year in person. I have also taught kindergarten, 1st and 5th grade in person as well.
Classes--
I am very passionate about teaching and move to make learning in our classroom enjoyable. I absolutely love to read and instill that same passion in my students. I am particularly interested in helping students identify letter names and sounds, practice phonemic awareness and gain better reading comprehension strategies. I strongly believe reading and writing go hand in hand. I'd relish the chance to enhance your student's reading and writing skill.
Fun Facts--
Besides teaching I love to travel, hike and spend time with my animals. I've traveled quite a bit in Europe and enjoy visiting my family and friends scattered across the United States. My German Shepherd also shares a love for hiking and travel. He often goes with me wherever I go. I have owned and trained horses most of my life. I began riding donkeys when I was 2 years but my passion for horses grew as I aged. I worked hard to buy my first horse when I was 13 and have held that love for horses ever since. I still have the two horses I bought when I was young. I enjoy snuggling up with my cats, a cup of hot tea and reading a good book. I am so excited to trade knowledge with your child about their animal experiences, love for travel or other outside activities!
I look forward to meeting your learner in the classroom! See you soon!Reviews
