US Grade 2 - 5
Budding scientists and nature lovers don't need any prior knowledge to take this class. They only need an interest in how nature works! Some of the things we will learn through discussion, photos, and videos include: * producer, consumer, and decomposer levels * why plants are so vital * types of consumers: herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores * where humans fit in * who decomposers are and what their role is * how food chains fit into a larger food web * what an ecosystem is. Students will be encouraged to participate by contributing anything they know and asking questions about what they don't know. We will play a fun quiz game at the end of class to see what students can remember. An optional mini-book for reading and coloring will be available for printing after registration. *If you don't see a time that works for your family please feel free to message me a request for a better option.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how food chains, food webs, and ecosystems are connected. They will learn about the levels in a food chain and why plants are so important.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Minnesota Teaching Certificate in English/Language Arts
Hello! Thank you for stopping by! I love students of all ages and I love teaching a variety of topics. Some of my favorite classes to teach are reading, nature, and science. I try to create a positive and encouraging atmosphere so learners feel comfortable in participating. I want students to have fun while learning!
I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Minnesota State University, a Minnesota teaching license, and a 160 hour TEFL certification.
I have been teaching and guiding children since 2000 as a preschool/childcare provider, an ELA teacher in public school classrooms, and an ESL teacher in online classrooms.
I love teaching, but I also love being a student! I take as many classes as possible on whatever subject piques my interest. Teaching and learning are my life!
When my three daughters are home from college we love going for hikes, cooking together, and of course, snuggling our two funny cats, Pumpkin and Marigold.
I hope to see your learner in class!
