Sequencing skills support some incredible elements of a young learner's development: brain power, recall, reading comprehension, communication and language building muscles...just to name a few! In this multi-day course, students will become familiar with the art of sequencing through a progression of various modes: verbal cues, picture cards, transitional stories (leveled growing to more detailed) and through personal language of 'first, then, next, last'. Each class meet (detailed below) will focus on the aforementioned modes, with Class 5 being the 'grand finale', with each student creating their own ***Sequence Accordion. Class 1: Verbal Cues/ Directions (sequencing three/ four movements based on oral directions) Class 2: Picture Cards (sequencing three/ four images that successfully order the steps of a task or action) Class 3: Book One (sequencing important elements of a basic, leveled text) Class 4: Book Two (sequencing three/ four important elements of a standard, age appropriate text with the introduction of 'first, then, next, last') Class 5: Book Three (sequencing 'first, then, next, last' on individual ***Sequence Accordions)

Teacher expertise and credentials
I may be grown up, but my favorite stories are still found in the land of youth literature!
My natural inclination to read anywhere (including upside down in that childhood recliner I mention in my video!) grew to daydreaming about being the characters I so loved reading about and even wondering what they may be like in the real world. Stories and their inhabitants were never flat to me, but rather full of life and complex – just like us, as it turns out!
After receiving my B.A. in English and Psychology, I taught for over a decade, cultivating my joy in literature and writing through teaching the bright, open minds of Pre K – 1st grade students. I became an educator that sought out books to develop rich, cross-curricular lessons and to build oral language and phonics skills. The world of literacy was (and still is!) accessible to all learners: those at grade level, those clamoring for reading challenges and those who built success with the consistency of a one-on-one/ small group learning environment. Each was meaningful, targeted instruction to best suit elementary reading muscles.
Through my literacy-rooted courses, you will find explorations of character development, personal connections, story elements and cause and effect often intertwined with the ‘science’ of writing: parts of speech, grammar, written fluency/ sequencing, oral communication and weaving words into stories that showcase our imaginations and opinions. Our minds and voices are powerful!
PLEASE don't hesitate to reach out with any curiosities you have about my current class offerings and keep an active eye out for upper elementary to middle grade courses.
An engaging nature, dedicated spirit and discussion galore is sure to accompany each class, as I welcome you into my land of literature!Reviews
