We will begin with introductions which will be followed by some fun facts and information on how to care for a dog. Then the students will follow along, as the teacher models, and draws a dog using shapes. Once the outline is drawn, the students will color or paint their dog as they like. It’s possible to continue coloring or painting the picture after class if a student needs more time. Each child’s dog will look different based on the child’s fine motor skills. It is encouraged that children can independently draw a circle. Parents are welcome to help their child off camera. This is a fun class with lots of communication so please be aware and limit background noise so everyone can stay unmuted if they choose.
Learning Goals
Students will identify basic shapes, use fine motor skills to draw a dog, and learn basic information on how to take care of a dog.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello families! My name is Kathy Eachus, and I have been an early childhood educator for twenty fun-filled years, teaching kindergarten and Pre-K. There is never a dull moment with the little ones, and I like to keep us busy with creative lessons that are hands-on and include lots of conversation. I have my Masters in Elementary Education and certifications from the state of New Jersey in Elementary Education, Preschool through Grade 3, and Reading. I also have a certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language. I enjoy teaching all subjects to children ages 3 to 6, especially literacy skills to my early learners to help them progress with beginning reading and writing.
Besides the literacy and math I teach in my classes, I also list several drawing classes on Outschool. These classes are just so much fun for me because I just love seeing the smile on a child's face when they post their final picture in the classroom once they are all finished painting or coloring.
Beyond the classroom, I love to travel and have been fortunate to visit all 50 states and 14 countries. I minored in geography and enjoy reading maps and learning about other places around the world. My husband and I love spending time in Slovenia and we are also trying to visit all of the National Parks in the United States. My daughter and I are also Disney geeks and have been to all of the parks except Hong Kong and Shanghai Disneyland. We hope to get there someday.
I hope to meet your child for a fun-filled lesson. Learning should always be interesting and enjoyable for children. See you in class!
Note: I am currently not listing classes for the remainder of 2023. See you in 2024.Reviews
