Fall Session: In this class students will learn all about writing a research report. We will go through a step by step breakdown on what is included and how to choose reliable resources. We will write a report together in class before students work individually on their own fictional location. Students will research and write an essay in class and then create a Poster/ Slideshow. Students will be given specific information to look for to help guide them. Students will have in class time to gather information and write, however, some students may prefer to write outside of class as well. I will also be available to help with the Slideshow. At the end, students will present their creations to the class. Week 1: What is research? How to find good/ reliable sources Week 2: Class report activity We will choose a location and research it together and make a travel brochure for it Week 3: Individual/Pair assignment and presentation Next up: Research a person, invention, animal

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! My name is Kathy and I live in Southern California. I love working with students all around the World and of all different ages. I mainly teach classes that are Language Arts based (reading, writing, spelling, and grammar). I also teach about Historical figures, especially if I can tie them into Literature. I also love teaching about animals, and doing story time for the younger kids.
I have been teaching for over 15 years. I have taught in traditional school settings, charter schools, home schooled my own children, and taught online. I have a BA in English as well as a K-12 Teaching Credential. I am very passionate about helping people learn to love reading and writing. I also love to help people that need a little extra help with spelling and grammar. It makes me so proud and happy to have a student tell me how much they think they are improving or to get answers correct on something they missed before.
My approach to teaching is interactive and hands on. I want my students to learn while having fun. I ask a lot of comprehension questions, group work, pair work, and projects (depending on the class). I try to do as much of the work in class as possible so that kids can still be kids once they are done.
My background is in English but I love History and Science too (especially the experiments). It wouldn't be unusual in one of my classes to have to make something that just pops into my mind because it seems fun. I love animals, chocolate, and all things Disney!Reviews
