Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - 1
Please join me in this one-time interactive class where we explore fall leaves and other fall things!  We will start the class by reading Leaf Man by Lois Ehlert.  The Leaf Man goes where the wind blows!  He's easy to be found when you're walking outside in autumn, just look on the ground!  Together we will compare the leaves, pinecones, acorns, sticks, and other fall things we found outside before class using our five senses.  How do the leaves (seeds, flowers, twigs, etc.) look?  What colors are they?  How do they feel?   We will discuss how the leaves change in fall.  Then students will create their own leaf creatures!  I look forward to creating some leaf creatures with your child as we explore fall.  Students are welcome to take this class outside (weather permitting of course).  If time allows we will sing a song about leaves.   I look forward to seeing your child in my virtual classroom.

Learning Goals

Students will use their 5 senses to explore nature (specifically leaves but also acorns, pinecones, sticks, etc.).
Students will learn about the parts of a book.
Students will practice pre-reading skills such as reading from left to right and top to bottom.
Students will understand words represent a spoken word and convey a message.
Students will answer simple questions about the story.
Students will describe elements in a story, for example, characters and/or setting (time, place, and/or environment).

Other Details

Supply List
construction paper (any color) or self-laminating sheet (clear contact paper also works)

markers, colored pencils, or crayons
googly eyes (optional)
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
