Class Experience

In this first grade class your child will meet with a certified teacher three times a week to go over first grade skills. Each day we will focus on a new subject. For example: Day 1 will be ELA (writing built in with it), Day 2 will be Math and Day 3 will be Science. This semester class is part 1 of 2, each being 15 weeks in length ( we will have breaks for Holidays). I will assign work for outside of class, but it is not mandatory. I will communicate with parents on a regular basis. My classes are interactive and your child will be asked to participate each class. I always try to make learning fun and engaging. You can see the break down of each week below.

Teacher expertise and credentials
New York Teaching Certificate in English/Language Arts
I teach a variety of different classes geared toward elementary students ages 3 and up. My classes include ELA, Math, Writing, Phonics, Stories, teaching beginner, intermediate and advanced readers, simple to complex sentences, and much more. I love student participation and encourage it in all my class. 
I have 16 years of teaching experience.  I teach 4th grade ELA in a public school in NYS and have been teaching for 5 years on Outschool. I have a Masters in Elementary Education, Bachelors in History, Associates in Business. I have taught Pre-k, K, and ESL online. I have taught all subjects. Over my 16 years of teaching, I have gone to many different trainings in ELA, math, behavioral and I am trained in Logics by Ortan Gillingham and currently training and using restorative practices. 
I believe every child can learn but not all through the same method. Learning needs to be fun and engaging and needs to be a memorable experience for students to truly understand it. 
I am a mom to five wonderful kids ages 6-12. They keep me busy and I love being their number one teacher! 

Class Expectations 
1. Be on time and be prepared. Please read class material section for proper materials.
2. Class will go the full length of the time unless their is a small number of students, then it may be a little shorter (usually only five minutes) 
3. I like to engage my students through different activities and discussion, if a student doesn't want to participate that is fine, but I will encourage it. 
4. You must turn your camera on at the beginning of class.
