This is the asynchronous version of my Squishmallows paper craft class. This class will have no live meetings and students will be able to work at a pace that is best for them. I will post step-by-step videos with detailed instructions on how to create our favorite Squishmallows. Students will have the ability to choose one of two ways to make each project and I will guide them in either way they choose. The first way to make their project will be using construction paper (and sometimes some coloring) and the second will be to use our printout and color it directly. We will cut and glue our Squishmallows together creating awesome projects that each student will be proud of. Students of all skill levels will be able to complete these projects confidently and skillfully! Along with a video, I will provide a printout that will serve as our guide for each character. Minimal supplies are needed to complete the projects. Students are encouraged to share their creations in our classroom, I love seeing the amazing things they create! I am available if help or guidance is needed, just reach out in the classroom or by email and I will reply promptly. Self-Paced classes are great for students who have busy schedules, may not be comfortable in a live class setting or students who just like to work at their own pace with no pressure. Learners will have access to videos for a full year!
Learning Goals
Students will practice their art skills and develop a sense of pride in the masterpieces they create working at their own pace with low stress.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from University of California Riverside
Hi! I love to teach classes that are fun and promote discussion and creativity. In all of my classes I mix critical thinking with out of the box thinking so that the kids learn something brand new! I find the best way to do this is by using books, video games, trivia and other interactive components to keep them engaged and wanting to learn.
My passion for critical thought stems from my degree in Philosophy. The integration of pop culture in my classes is rooted in a lifetime of toy collecting, video game playing, and during my time as a staff writer for an online comic book review site. Over the past five years I have created community-based, pop-up craft classes for parents and children that integrate culture and thought, and I am excited about the opportunity to share these types of activities with my students!
Outside of teaching I enjoy spending time with my husband, son, two cats and puppy! I love online gaming and spending a lot of time crafting.
