Class experience
US Grade Pre-Kindergarten
In this one-time class, we will read two favorite monster books, "Are You My Monster" by Amanda Noll and "Monster Needs A Costume" by Paul Czajak. We will practice skills to prepare us for kindergarten like listening, speaking in turn, letters/sounds, numbers and counting! Little learners can build great listening, observation and creative thinking skills during storytime, asking questions and using their imagination.

Learners will strengthen literacy, listening and sharing skills and observation and speaking skills while we listen to stories and ask and answer questions throughout the readings and practice taking turns talking, sharing predictions and observations about the books we read. We will also work on skills like letter/sounds, numbers, shapes, visual discrimination and fine motor when we build our monster with the provided printables. **In order to promote class discussions and participation I do not mute learners' microphones. This also helps learners practice their social skills such as active listening and taking turns. In order for this to work, students need to be in a quiet setting away from background noises (loud conversations, telephone calls, t.v, etc.). **
1 file available upon enrollmentPlease view and print out the multi-page monster parts printable. Ask your learner to select and cut out the parts they want to use BEFORE class so we are ready to build our monsters togther during class. For example; choose a body, a mouth, a set of eyes, arms, legs, horns and "other parts". Please bring a glue stick to class... the monster can be glued togther after class too! If a printer isn't available, learners are welcome to draw the monster using the printable for examples of monster parts. **In order to promote class discussions and participation I do not mute learners' microphones.

Because of the age of the class I recommend a grown up be within "ear-shot" to help with any technical hiccups (mic and video) that might come up. If your learner is working on scissor skills, an adult can help with cutting apart the different monster pieces before class begins.
