This class involves both group and individual spelling practice. Students will practice spelling in a fun and interactive environment. Each week students will learn a new spelling, grammar, or English language rule. They will be sent a word list to practice ahead of class. During class time they will be assigned a word to practice and spell. We will play group games in class to help learn and reinforce spelling and reading concepts. At the end of the lesson each child will get a turn to spell their word out loud. Each week we will cover a different word list. Class word lists will alternate between the fourth and fifth grade level with some adjustment as requested.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi I'm Jenn! I am a Children's book author and Early Childhood Educator from Canada, and have been teaching 3-14 year old learners since 2013. I got halfway through a program to become an elementary school teacher before switching to a psychology based degree in Child Youth and Family studies. My focus is on healthy child brain and body development.
My passion is in understanding the functions of the human brain! Children who understand how their brain works, and understand concepts like brain plasticity are more likely to be resilient and develop a growth mindset. I teach psychology classes and my goal is to teach children how to be resilient and how to build on their strengths while strengthening their weaknesses. My published book is about the brain as well!
I worked as a personal support worker while I was studying, and I emphasize inclusivity in my classes. If you have a learner who needs any adjustment to fit their needs send me a message. I will work with you to make their learning experience a success. I am happy to add subtitles to my own video content, change class sizes to meet individualized needs, and accommodate students based on their developmental level.
I am passionate about travel and I plan on world schooling my own children when they get older! I have a number of travel related classes available. Keep an eye out for virtual world schooling classes in the future! When it is safe to travel again I will be taking my classroom on the road.
I can't wait to meet you in the classroom!
