In Merry Mornings we will welcome one another to our circle-time with songs that get our wiggles out, and then settle in to explore preschool-based concepts. Please note that this class needs to meet a class minimum (4 learners) to run each week. In each class we will incorporate: -the calendar by counting the days within the month, and singing songs for the days of the week and months of the year. -the weather as each child becomes a meteorologist to report on what they observe out their window. - a storybook that bridges to the concept of the day. -an interactive game and worksheet that will each develop skills such as: counting, shape and color recognition, letter and letter sounds identification, and fine motor skills- such as pencil grip, and scissor practice. We will also incorporate sharing time, based on the theme for the day. This is a preschool course designed for children age 3 turning 4, for the preschool year PRIOR to Pre-K. Upcoming class themes include: Fruit and Veggie ABCs Shapes and Critters Counting with Colors Big and Small Opposites Day
Learning Goals
Preschool Concepts including: Counting, ordinal numbers, colors, shapes, letter/letter sound recognition, and fine motor skills. Building self-confidence and communication skills in speaking and sharing within a small social setting.

Teacher expertise and credentials
NOTE: as of Fall 2022 I am returning full time to my in-person teaching, I am happy to book out a section for anyone who would like to give it a try, however the class must meet the learner minimum to proceed. Drop me a line to inquire about any class that has you interested. Much thanks and happy learning!
Hello! My name is Miss Abby and I love to engage students through hands-on activities, and active participation in learning together. I have worked as an Early Childhood Educator since 2007, teaching children ages 3-7. I like to use stories as a jumping off point to connect with more academic concepts. By bridging story themes, songs, movement, and activities to learning- I find my preschool students' engagement with the concepts soars, and makes learning synonymous with having fun.
My personal hobby for baking led me to begin teaching those skills in-person with young bakers in 2017. I since have paired baking with my love of books- to bring novels to life by baking up the foods we encounter in them. Experiencing the foods of other eras, places, and characters can spark fresh perspective on the stories we read. Thus was born the Baking Book Club series I teach on Outschool.
