Turkeys, pumpkins, and cranberry sauce - oh my! It's almost Thanksgiving. Let's have fun with words! In this class, students will use critical thinking and problem-solving skills to solve Thanksgiving-themed puzzles, riddles, word scrambles, guess the word, cross word puzzles, and more. We will practice social skills, communication, and teamwork while having fun together. Reading and spelling skills are necessary to complete the puzzles and challenges. I will be available throughout class to provide help as needed, but students are encouraged to try and work together with their teammates to solve the puzzles even when it's difficult. I can't wait to go on a Thanksgiving Word Games adventure together!
Learning Goals
Students will improve their logic and critical thinking skills.
Other Details
Supply List
Students will need a writing utensil and paper to help solve the puzzles.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Angie. For the past four years, I’ve taught English online while providing home education to my son who is currently a 5th grader. I have a master’s degree in social work and have also taken three years of doctorate level courses in pursuit of a PhD in Early Childhood Education. For several years, I taught child development classes to aspiring teachers at the collegiate level. In my career, I’ve also been a child and family therapist, helping children and their families tackle emotional and mental health concerns. I’ve worked with children in many capacities and am passionate about helping students learn and thrive in a variety of ways. I strongly believe learning should be fun, and I strive to always create an upbeat, positive learning environment. Who says you can’t learn and be silly at the same time?!
Outside of teaching, my hobbies include photography, martial arts, reading, and gaming with my family. I live at the beach in Florida with my husband Erick (also an Outschool teacher!), our science-loving son, and our cuddly cat.
If you would like to sign up for a class but the listed times don't work with your learner's schedule, please send me a message stating the class(es) you'd like to book as well as dates and times that work for you. I will do my best to accommodate scheduling requests.
