We all have celebrities who we admire or look up to! But, like us all, they are definitely not perfect. This becomes VERY obvious in many of their tweets! In this class, students will see that even our role models make blunders with grammar and spelling sometimes. Each week we will examine 4 celebrity tweets. Together we will decipher what they intended to say and rewrite their Tweets. Come join us! Here is a brief breakdown of the first 4 classes: Week of August 1 Examples of covered skills: complete sentences, word choice, to/two/too, subject/verb agreement, it's/its Celebrities: Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Kim Kardashian, Lady Gaga Week of August 8 Examples of covered skills: complete sentences, word choice, subject/verb agreement, capitalization, "should have" Celebrities: Dizzee Rascal, Kourtney Kardashian, Ed Sheeran, Wayne Rooney Week of August 15 Examples of covered skills: complete sentences, capitalization, correcting missing words, contractions, subject/verb agreement, comma usage Celebrities: Jack Whitehall, Bruno Mars, Snoop Dogg, Kim Kardashian West Week of August 22 Examples of covered skills: an/and, compound words, complete sentences, word choice, your/you're, correcting missing words, correcting spelling mistake, abbreviation Celebrities: Zayn Malik, 50 Cent, Mary J.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Mrs. Rebecca loves the quote, “Teaching isn’t my job. It’s my passion.” She has had this passion from the beginning. Her teddy bears learned a lot, with her bedroom-sized chalkboard and old textbooks from her mom’s elementary classroom. It was no surprise to anyone when she sought and gained her Interdisciplinary Studies (K-8) degree in 2001.
That fall, she began her teaching career in a self-contained 6th grade classroom. Since then, she has taught all core subject areas in grades 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in a Tennessee public school system. As a dedicated public school teacher, she spent countless hours planning lessons, creating materials, researching for best practices, collaborating with co-workers, and combing through student data. Her students consistently showed academic growth on state testing.
In 2018, Mrs. Rebecca resigned from teaching with public schools to teach online. She initially made this change to spend more time with her wonderful husband and two beautiful children. Through this she discovered that she loves teaching online and meeting students from all over the world!
Mrs. Rebecca also currently teaches homeschool students through a local tutorial in-person and online. She loves teaching courses to Elementary students, as well as middle and high school students!
No matter the setting, Mrs. Rebecca always looks for ways to encourage learners to bring their own experiences and expertise to class. She loves learning from her students, as well as capitalizing on what they already know.
Please check out one of Mrs. Rebecca's classes! She looks forward to meeting you soon!
