The students can choose to learn their words before the class to be more successful.) A Week In October: Halloween-themed Vocabulary Words: Spooky, Ghost, Pumpkin, Fright, Costume Day 1: Introduce words with Pokémon examples. Discuss meanings. Day 2: Read a Halloween-themed Pokémon story. Day 3: Creative activity: Draw a Pokémon in a costume and label it with vocabulary words. Day 4: Students write a short Halloween story featuring the words. Day 5: Sharing time: Present stories to the class. --------------------------------------------- READING EXAMPLE WITH VOCABULARY WORDS. Suddenly, out of the shadows, Gengar appeared with a spooky grin. “Gengar!” it laughed, enjoying the fright it had caused. But instead of running away, Ash had an idea. “Gengar! Why don’t you join our party?” Gengar’s eyes lit up. “Gengar loves parties!” it replied. With a wave of its hand, Gengar made all the pumpkins glow brighter, casting a warm, friendly light over the gathering. Everyone was relieved and excited to have Gengar at the party. They played games, danced, and shared spooky stories about their favorite Pokémon. Ash dressed as a brave Charizard challenged Gengar to a pumpkin-carving contest, and Misty brewed up a special “witch’s brew” punch for everyone to enjoy. As the night went on, the spooky atmosphere turned into one of joy and laughter. The real fright turned out to be the fun they were having together! ----------------------------------------------------- Join us for this Pokémon experience, where each month brings new vocabulary challenges and fun!

Hey there! I’m Billy, your child’s creative adventure buddy! Every week, I work to create a fun and supportive space where your child can look forward to learning and growing. I make sure each class is an exciting, safe environment where they can express themselves, make new friends, and build confidence through art.
For over 12 years, I’ve traveled the globe, soaking up vibrant cultures and creative experiences. I’m currently living in Egypt, where I’ve been for 7 years, teaching and inspiring young minds from all over the world.
With 30+ years of experience as an actor, singer, director, and choreographer, I’ve had the chance to teach the kids of movie stars! But my heart belongs to helping kids express themselves through drawing.
I’ve had the privilege of studying animation and storytelling with some of the best in the business—Disney, Nickelodeon, and DreamWorks. Through internships and collaborations, I’ve learned the magic of creating characters, telling stories, and designing visually compelling art, and I bring those lessons into my classes, helping students unlock their own creativity.
I’ve proudly taught on Outschool for over 4 years, and I’m honored to be recognized as a top teaching contributor. My classes blend artistic skills with storytelling, turning each lesson into an adventure. My students have gone on to shine on Broadway, star in TV shows, and become amazing artists themselves!
I hold a Bachelor’s in Performing Arts/Dance and a Master’s in Education. My teaching philosophy? Spark imagination, make learning fun, and encourage kids to grow in confidence and creativity.
I’m so proud of my students and can’t wait to bring that same energy to your child’s creative journey! Let’s explore the world of art together as part of the OUTSCHOOL family!Reviews
