Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 4
Welcome to Ms. Jodi's library classroom!  Settle in for a beautiful and compassionate holiday story with me this Christmas!  

As Jo helps her sick mother and her hungry baby brother on a cold and windy Christmas Eve, she searches for shelter for her little family.  Will a surprising person be able to open their heart to help Jo?

Perfect for grades 2-4.  All reading levels and ESL students are welcome in this class.  I will read the books as the students look at the pictures on screen share.  We will also have some creative visualization/drawing time after the story to process and will answer comprehension questions together.  

Please provide drawing paper and crayons for your student for this class.  

Class Structure:
~Light story candle
~Read The Christmas Wind by Stephanie Simpson McLellan

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from University of Phoenix
I am a Waldorf educator having worked as a school librarian and library/research subject teacher for 6 years with grades K-12 as faculty at a Waldorf school in rural Pennsylvania.  I also worked as the first grade rest time teacher bringing calm and beautiful stories to this grade every day for many years. I have trained, been mentored by, and served along with some of the most experienced and dedicated Waldorf class and subject teachers in the world, some of whom have passed on and given me the greatest gift possible...to see their joy in teaching young souls. I also served as the reading coach for our school Reading Olympics team with over 40 students per year voluntarily coming to my library for an extracurricular where students were excited to read over 45 books a school year!  

I have been offering comprehensive and affordable private lessons for Waldorf and other students around the world for several years. I also offer special Waldorf grades classes where students can connect with other students around the world.  Our comfort with zoom now allows me to come to you no matter where in the world you may be!  From day one, my students notice the improvement in their abilities and overall comprehension but parents especially note the change in their confidence. I get letters every day from parents telling me how much they see the confidence in their student improving after working with me.  Each student has a unique learning style, and it’s my duty to find out what that is and adapt my lessons accordingly. Contact me today to find out how I can help you achieve your academic goals.  As both a Waldorf former homeschooling mom and a teacher at a Waldorf school, I offer a unique experience to wherever your student may be-at home or at school-while needing extra lessons.

I have also taken private courses in archetypes for several years and studied the work of Carl Jung as a B.S. Psychology student.  I am also a published writer in the Waldorf publication LILIPOH magazine. I lived on a Navajo reservation for several summers. I also have Masters classes in Library Science, Human Services, as well as diversity training. I ran a middle and high school library at the Waldorf school where I taught creative writing, library, and research classes for six years.  I also worked in the Waldorf kindergarten and grades as an aftercare teacher.
