Hello Dino Lovers! I am excited for you to join in on our dinosaur adventure today! We are going to have a "Roarrrr-ing Good Time!" becoming paleontologis and studying T-Rex today! Gear up in your favorite adventure outfit and let's learn all about Tyrannosaurus Rex "King of the Dinosaurs"! This is an interactive class that will encourage learners through games, sharing, movement & more! Each learner is encouraged to bring their favorite dinosaur to share with their classmates during our time together. We will observe real pictures and videos of T-Rex in their natural habitats. Some of the questions that we will explore during our time together: What does a T-Rex habitat look like? What does a T-Rex tooth look like? What is the difference between carnivores + herbivores? How tall is T-Rex? How fast was T-Rex? Preschool + Kindergartener learners love to share! Please encourage your learner to bring their favorite T-Rex or Dinosaur to class to share during our time together! I am excited to meet you! See you soon! - Ms. Casey

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! Welcome to my Outschool classroom! My name is Casey Ray, and I live in the beautiful state of Washington! I am a Washington state certified elementary teacher (K-8), a mother of two, and an animal lover (especially llamas and penguins). I love to see new things and explore nature and the world.
I received my BA in Elementary Education from Grand Canyon University, and my Masters in Education - Reading Specialist Endorsement from Liberty University. I have experience teaching Pre-K through 3rd grade as well as teaching online as an ESL teacher to children ages 4-10.
My passion is teaching reading skills to children K4-2nd grade as well as incorporating elements of STEM and STEAM-focused learning throughout my lessons. I love to encourage learners to build up their self-esteem by strengthening their skills through various activities that focus on letter recognition, phonemic awareness, sight words, and fluency. As an Elementary and ESL teacher, I find so much joy in teaching children to read, but I believe that learning is so much more than reading words from a book! Learning through play and hands-on activities allows children to make sense of the world around them through discovery. Experiencing these activities first-hand allows them to develop cognitively, socially, and emotionally. Through play, children learn a set of skills as the following: social skills, creativity, hand-eye coordination, problem-solving, fine and gross motor skills, and positive self-esteem.
My classes will always be inclusive, engaging, student-centered, include movement, and be focused around a fun individualized learning experience! I eagerly anticipate meeting your child soon in my classroom! I hope our time together leaves them bubbling over with excitement!
See you soon!
