Today we are going to learn all about shapes. We will start out the class by introducing the different shapes. We will then play a game dice game to practice identifying and naming the shapes. Next, we will have a read aloud. Finally, we will go on a shape hunt. We will find different shapes in our home. I like to adapt my lessons to the needs of each class, therefore activities may change. I will encourage each student to participate and share with the class. No prior knowledge is needed. Please bring a dry erase board and marker.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to identify and name at least 4/7 shapes and colors.

Parental Guidance
Please encourage you child to cut out the shapes. This will help them develop their fine motor skills. However, this task can be adapted to meet your child's ability. If your child is a beginner cutter, have him/her cut out the biggest shape. You can cut around it and then have them practice cutting the outline of the shape. If your child struggles to cut out each shape just cut around each shape leaving a bit of white space and then have your child cut it out. If your child is a mastered cutter allow him/her to cut out all the shapes.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello, my name is Audrey, and I am so glad to be here and am excited to share a little about me. I love learning and teaching. Every day is a day to learn something new no matter how old we are.
I attended Southwest Baptist University in Bolivar, Missouri earning a bachelors in elementary education with an emphasis in early child. I then went back to school and received my bachelor's in communication science disorders which allows me to be a speech therapist assistant.

My classes are developed to help students have the foundational skills to become lifelong learners. Also, there are classes that are developed to help students to build on their desires and passions, so they can meet their goals.
I believe every learner has the opportunity to learn if they have a good attitude and the right environment. The environment makes a big difference on the learner's attitude. In my classes, I always engage as many senses as possible, since research shows that stronger neural pathways are formed when more senses are engaged! Students also take control of their own learning by asking questions and sharing what they know.
I am more a facilitator and try help where is needed and ask engaging questions.
Some fun facts about me include a love for outdoors, spending time with family, and reading. Alex, my dog, looks like a fox. I always like to learn something new and now I am learning to play the piano.Reviews
