Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - 1
Beginner Level
🎯Students will begin this class by exercising their brains by manipulating letters sounds in a fun phonemic awareness game.  ("say met, change the m to n and what do you hear?")  They will play an engaging rhyming game as well as focus on vocabulary word work.  The student's work will focus on beginning sounds, blends and vowel sounds.  
This class is for beginning readers or readers who want to strengthen their letter sound skills and become stronger readers and writers.  We will work on rhyming, vowels, word parts, and reading words in context. Feel free to enroll your child for repeated classes, the word work and rhyming focus will change with each class. Or you might want to consider enrolling your child in my one on one tutoring sessions.  Just send me a message about a time/day(s) that works for your learner.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi!  Welcome to my Outschool classroom.  My name is Betty Nilssen.  I have a BS in Elementary Education with a minor in Spanish from UW-Milwaukee.  I am a first grade teacher, but I have also taught second, third and fourth grade.  My passion for teaching reading while incorporating phonics, phonemic awareness, rhyming, comprehension, fluency, science, social studies, math, drawing and writing helps children strengthen their academic skills while they gain academic confidence and a love of learning.  Teaching reading is my super power.  
However, I incorporate math, writing, social studies and science into all of my lessons, as well.  
I have three adult daughters and two of them are teachers, as well.  
There are so many books to read, words and sentences to write, math equations to solve and fiction and non fiction pictures to draw. Let's get started! Use code:  BettyNi2020 at checkout to try your first class and get $20 off.  Enroll your Early Childhood Education student and your child will further develop their academic skills and gain academic confidence.  Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or if you are looking for different times or dates for classes.  
I can't wait to work with you and your child!  Mrs. Nilssen
