Look up and let your imagination soar as you paint a bright sky filled with whimsical clouds and stars. Learners will be taught how to blend acrylic paints to achieve a beautiful color changing sky. Learners will also learn a technique to draw and paint organic and whimsical clouds. Each painting will be unique to each individual learner as learners will have their choices of different colors, cloud shapes, and types of stars they will like to see in their painting. Come join me in the classroom, and I look forward to seeing your unique creation! This class will require you have a few art supplies on hand to paint a whimsical clouds and stars painting. You will need acrylic paints, brushes, acrylic paper, newspapers to keep your area clean, paper plates to mix paint on, paper towels, small cup of water, scissors, and card stock paper.

Teacher expertise and credentials
**Disclaimer: Currently on a Teacher Break**
Hello! I am Teacher Amber! I am passionate about teaching young learners ages 3-7 to read and write and will center my Outschool classes on penmanship and phonological awareness like alliteration, rhyming, and blending words. I have experienced first hand as a long term Kindergarten permanent substitute how my students were all at different levels of reading and writing. I always found time to sit down and help them improve their writing and fluency skills. I have earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Interdisciplinary Studies, Teacher & Bilingual Education through the traditional teaching program from Texas A&M University from Kingsville, TX where I took courses on child development and the Foundations of Literacy Instruction. Through this program, I have been able to exchange ideas and teaching strategies with other teachers in the program and learn from others’ teaching philosophies while developing my own philosophy around progressivism.
I completed two semester long classroom observations for a kindergarten class and a 2nd grade class where I guided student-dictated reading prompts for students to write in their journals following a read aloud story. When I graduated, I received my Texas Educator Certificate in Core Subjects EC-6 in December 2017 allowing me to teach a variety of subjects to learners in early childhood through 6th grade. I hope I can transfer over to the Outschool online teaching platform the invaluable knowledge and skills I acquired over the years from my classroom experiences and education.
Something fun about me is that I love drawing! I remember when I was 9, I had uncovered the amazing world of anime and manga. It has opened my eyes to something new and exciting! My first anime I fell in love with was Inuyasha, followed by Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball Z, and Cased Closed. I always drew in my sketchbook any opportunity I could get. I joined my art clubs in middle and high school. I picked up a few more mediums along the way like painting and clay sculpting. I want to teach art like "How To" Drawings and paintings. I have had years of practice drawing and sketching since my childhood because of my fascination with anime and manga. That fascination has never died! I will love to teach children of different age ranges 4-8 and 9-13 depending on the complexity of the drawings. I want to incorporate my love for drawing into my teaching style.Reviews
