During this engaging class, we will learn about couplet poems and write some about unicorns that are celebrating the New Year. A couplet poem usually has 2 lines that rhyme. For example, "talk" and "clock" could be used. Additionally, each line has about the same number of syllables. Students will be given examples and support throughout the writing process. Notably, we will discuss unicorns, New Year's Eve & Day, 2022, magic, rhyming, syllables, nouns, and adjectives. I'll encourage everyone to share a poem or at least a portion of their wonderful writing. Learners often inspire me and each other with their fresh, funny, and interesting ideas. My friendly personality helps facilitate learning and conversations.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello, my name is Kendall. I've been teaching on Outschool since July 2021, and I've joyfully worked with children for over 10 years. Essentially, I enjoy personalizing educational experiences and facilitating learning in fun ways. I'm an encouraging educator, and I value authenticity, creativity, and diversity. On Outschool, I mainly teach poetry and writing classes. I taught English online to children in other countries for 2 years, and I'm excited to connect with more learners from around the world. I'm TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certified. I've also worked as an English tutor, after-school science instructor, engaging camp counselor, and assistant camp supervisor. Additionally, I've really enjoyed working with children who are autistic, and I have some personal and professional experience with neurodiversity. Notably, I'm grateful for all of the bright and beautiful brains that help make Outschool so cool! :-]
As a lifelong learner, I appreciate how others and education can shape our evolution. I graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) with a BA in Anthropology, and I have an AA in Psychology from a community college. I decided that I want to become a veterinarian later in life, so I've been working on prerequisites that I need for vet school. I love the flexibility and outstanding opportunities that Outschool offers. So, cheers to learning and loving an array of things! Thank you, and I look forward to connecting with you.Reviews
