Class Experience

****This class is pre-recorded and does NOT meet live.***

Let's make some cute Christmas figurines! Students who love to craft can spend hours and hours making these beautiful creations. Most importantly, we will have fun and grow in confidence and creativity. 

This class will consist of videos of Christmas figurines as well as written & picture step-by-step instructions. 
In the videos, I will demonstrate how to make the figurines using modeling clay (please check the supplies section).

I will provide students with tips and tricks on how to work with magic air dry modeling clay. I will be available to answer questions and give feedback daily if students need help.

Learning Goals

Students will grow in confidence and flexibility as they venture out into the freedom of being creative and imaginative.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Please be advised of potential sensitivities and allergies to clay/playdough used in this project.
Supply List
Students will need a set clay or playdough of a variety of colors (might need extra white). I recommend air dry magic clay, especially if they want to hang these on the tree. Air clay is lighter and hangs better on the tree. 

This is a link where you can purchase it on Amazon: 
https://www.amazon.com/EDIFON-Modeling-Sculpting-Non-Toxic-Eco-Friendly/dp/B0919BBYBR

Students can also string these to hanging the ornaments.

Having some tools can also help with shaping the clay. If tools don't come with your set, you can use a set of plastic utensils for cutting the clay and making holes.

Teacher expertise and credentials

About Me:
I have a Master's degree in teaching and over 15 years of teaching experience in both public and private schools. From 2016-2020, I've been teaching and training teachers for online instruction, specializing in methodologies and curriculum development. I also spent many years studying how the brain learns information. It's fascinating! I'm a mom of two kiddos. They are the reason I love teaching. 

My classes:
All the materials in my classroom are designed with kids in mind, and I ensure that all my classes are tested with students before being launched. My strength lies in motivating struggling students to enjoy learning. I help them overcome fear of challenging subjects like math or languages by creating an environment 
that is fun and engaging. Over the years, I have implemented effective lessons, using unconventional methods such as Singapore math, that are not typically taught in classrooms. These methods allow me to target students' individual needs. 

Accomplishments:
I have spearheaded several initiatives in online teaching, including the first successful online classroom program in the world for impoverished children, which I presented at the International TESOL Convention in 2018. My ultimate desire is to see education made accessible to underprivileged kids worldwide. 

Educational Philosophy:
I believe that every child deserves access to fun and effective education. Recognizing that every child learns differently, I strive to accommodate various learning styles. Above all, my goal is to put a smile on every child's face.

Education:
- Bachelor's in Design
- Master's degree in Teaching
- Elementary Education Certification with ESOL
