During this class student will listen to the teacher read a different high-quality book each week (picture books). The students will answer and discuss comprehension (critical thinking) questions with the teacher. These questions will incite a deeper thinking and also help students to get a grasp on many reading skills and reading vocabulary words associated with a higher comprehension rate. Each week will have a different book as well as different focuses within the book. These focuses include but are not limited to: -Figurative Language (personification, onomatopoeia, etc.) -Themes -Characters -Setting -Grammar (in the form of breaking down mentor sentences) -Plot -And many more skills critical for success in the elementary school reading classroom.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am new to Outschool so I am so excited to get started and will be offering Math and Reading tutoring and Reading Book Clubs (comprehension clubs). I have a passion for learning and hope that I can elicit that in your children.
I have been a teacher for 11 years and have taught 6th grade for 5 years and am currently in my 6th year of 3rd grade. I absolutely love teaching and hope that I can help your children to not only comprehend stories better but also elicit a love of reading they haven't experienced before. I also am passionate about helping to make math a little easier for both children (and parents) helping with math homework can be hard, but I can help make it easier.
I have a Bachelor's Degree from Tennessee Technological University in Elementary Education (grades K-6).
I also have a Master's Degree from Bryan College in Curriculum and Instruction. I will also be starting my Doctorate in January to further my education even more to help your student.
I am a huge book worm but mainly children's books, I love bedtime at my house because I get to read to my 2 children Connor (10) and Finley (6) all the wonderful stories to take them to another land right before bed.Reviews
