Class Experience

We will read along, laugh, and have a lively discussion as we make predictions and learn facts about turkeys in this fun Thanksgiving story.  The creative kids are the heroes in this tall tale about a field trip to Old Farmer McNugget's turkey farm.  When the kids realize what is about to happen to the turkeys, they hatch a plan to save them!  After visiting and talking about our story, we will do a directed handprint turkey for fun! Interactive questions that are sure to produce hilarious answers will be shared with learners.  A Thanksgiving poem, and a fun, energizing dance of "Turkey Hokey'Pokey" will be played. This book is sure to become a classic that your learners will want to read every Thanksgiving.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello there!  I really enjoy sharing my love of learning by teaching classes about science (Life Science, Earth Science, animals, and anything related to nature).  I also like to teach others to sew and craft.  I learned to sew and craft at a young age, and I love sharing that creative outlet with children.  I've been reading since I was four, and I haven't stopped yet!  Reading opens many doors, and it is so exciting to watch children learn to love to read and become successful readers! 
I have been a certified elementary classroom teacher for over 25 years.  I also was a homeschool teacher for my own children for 8 years.  I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in teaching, an Elementary Reading certification, an English as a Second Language certification, and a Teaching Reading as a Foreign Language certification.  
As a teacher, I provide a safe, caring, inclusive environment where students are free to learn and grow and have fun! I believe my students can do anything with a little help and encouragement.
I live on a 90 acre working ranch.  My husband and I raise cattle, goats, turkeys, chickens, and exotic deer.  There is always work to do and mouths to be fed around here!
I am so thrilled to be teaching with Outschool and I am ready to meet my new learners!
