Welcome to our exciting Science Camp, specifically designed for preschoolers and kindergarteners! Every week, our young learners will have the opportunity to explore a fascinating science topic through an interactive lesson, which will be full of fun and hands-on activities. To further enhance their learning experience, we will provide a video (no more than 20 mins) and a captivating game that is related to the topic of each week. These will be a great way to reinforce the key concepts and ideas covered in the lesson. In addition, we will include an activity sheet at the end of each lesson, which will involve cut-and-paste tasks. These activities will help our young learners to extend their knowledge beyond the classroom and develop their fine motor skills. As the author and provider of these educational videos, it is my utmost priority to provide you with an exceptional learning experience. Should you require any assistance, feedback, or have any queries, I am dedicated to responding promptly within a few hours. Your satisfaction is my topmost concern, and I am committed to ensuring that you receive the best possible support.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Mississippi Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hey there! I'm excited to share that I have a Master's Degree in Elementary Education and spent a wonderful 10 years teaching in a public school. I had the pleasure of teaching 6th grade for 5 years and then taught in a 3rd grade classroom for the last 5 years. In my classes, I used small groups and tailored instruction to meet the diverse needs of my students.
I'm really passionate about encouraging reading for fun and for learning. I truly believe that when students have a solid foundation in reading, learning becomes a whole lot easier. And you know what? Math has now become my new favorite subject to teach! I love coming up with different ways to help struggling learners and to challenge those who are stronger in math. I firmly believe that by making math and reading enjoyable, we can inspire a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
On top of that, I'm also incredibly fortunate to be able to stay at home with my amazing 5-year-old triplets every day. They are an absolute joy!Reviews
