US Grade 3
Join us for 3rd grade fun. Learn in a supportive classroom environment from the comfort of your own home. We will meet four days a week for reading, writing, and math lessons. Each day will be different. Some days we will concentrate on reading or writing. Other days we will spend more time on math. During some of our classes, we will spend time on both language arts and math. During the year-long class, students will have a complete 3rd grade curriculum in language arts and math. Classes will include learning modules, classroom activities, videos, and worksheets. My teaching style is interactive, collaborative, hands-on learning. Throughout the year we will do projects, play games, and do activities for a fun, supportive learning experience. The syllabus provides a detailed look at the learning goals for this class. We will learn about grammar, spelling, and vocabulary. We will read a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction essays, worksheets, and books. We will learn to write strong sentences, paragraphs, and essays. We will dip our toes into fictional, creative writing. On the math front, we will strengthen our addition and subtraction skills. We will learn multiplication and division. We will learn about decimals and fractions. We will also explore geometry and work on some pre-algebra concepts. This class will build on previous classes, but new students can join at any time. I will work with the students to ease them into class. Notes: Schedule - If you are interested in this class, please contact me to request it. This class will only be taught if there are a minimum of four students in the class as it is designed to be an interactive class. I cannot share recordings for this class as some of the content is copyright-protected. We will read and write about some science and history/civics topics, however, this class will not fulfill your science and history homeschool requirements. If you need a complete science and history curriculum, please check out my Primus Curriculum: 3rd Grade Science and History Learning Pod class here on Outschool. If yyourstudent needs more individualized assistance with reading and writing, I tutor reading and writing here on Outschool.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Sociology from Minors: Biology, Chemistry, and Writing
Hello. I am Annette the Teacher. I can't wait to teach you here on Outschool.
My educational philosophy is to foster the growth and knowledge of my students through personalized, project-based, and collaborative learning. I believe in nurturing every student's quest for knowledge through Activity-Based Learning. Learning should be fun. My classes are based on hands-on learning projects. In my classes, you get into the action with experiments, activities, projects, crafts, cooking, and more.
I have been teaching for many years. I have over three decades of experience teaching children of all ages. I have a B.A. in Sociology with minors in Biology, Chemistry, and Writing from the University of Pittsburgh. I have homeschooled my children from Pre-School through their High School graduations. All of my classes are interactive. I encourage students to fully participate in class. My classes feature hands-on activities, books, and worksheets I write for the class. No matter the subject, my classes get the students involved.
I have been working as a tutor for 10+ years.
I am a writer and artist. I use my extensive knowledge and experience to create unique classes for every student. I enjoy teaching science, history, and art classes. I bring history alive with my "Big History ..." classes where students learn about key times in history through interactive lessons and projects. "Paint like ... Famous Artists" art classes where students learn about famous artists and create their own artwork based on the artists' works. "Smart Science" classes where we explore science and complete experiments and projects. I know hands-on, interactive experiences are the best way for children to learn.
I also have experience working with Special Needs children. I am Mom to a child on the autism spectrum and a child with serious medical needs and ADHD. If your child has special needs, please contact me so I can work with you and your child.
I can't wait to share my lifelong love of learning with you. There is so much knowledge out there, come and discover it with me!
