Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 3
Intermediate Level
In this on-going class, the students will meet once a week to discuss the book of the week that they will have read before class. We will talk about the characters, setting, plot, etc. With the non-fiction books, the students will get a chance to tell each other something interesting they learned from the book and ask any questions at this time. After, the students will get a chance to read with their friends to build their fluency. Come along and join the fun of reading and sharing with other friends.

** My teaching style is organized and full of fun while being relaxed and friendly at the same time. So come be a part of my class!
