US Grade Kindergarten - 2
In this class, students will enjoy learning about Jane Goodall by listening to the story "Me...Jane" by Patrick McDonnell. Students will be able to ask and answer questions throughout the book. We will also focus on how illustrations help tell a story. After the book, students will watch a 5 minute video by Scishow Kids called "Into the Forest with Jane Goodall!" through Kindu, a safe site which reduces advertisements and other unwanted distractions. Finally, students will participate in a directed drawing of Jane looking through binoculars at some chimpanzees. So come and learn with me!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! I'm Teacher Shannon! I have taught 2nd grade for 24 years. I've taught both Gifted and Regular Education. I was a substitute teacher for 2 years working with Early Childhood students as well as older elementary students. My passion is reading! I love Children's Literature and I have even co-taught college level students on "What's New In Children's LIterature?" for the last 10 years. What drives me as a teacher is to have a fun, safe, interactive classroom while embracing lots of quality literature. I want kids to love reading as much as I do and to have fun learning! And maybe make a craft or two along the way!
