This one time class is focused on the WhoHQ book titled "Who is Kamala Harris" (ISBN 978-0-593-38448-0). This book is available through many retailers including Amazon and Barnes and Noble. I am not affiliatated with either sources, nor do I benefit from your book purchase. Students should purchase this book and read it prior to the class date/time. During class we will review key facts about Kamala Harris that we read in the book, discover a few more interesting facts about her, read the Vice President inaugural oath, write a letter to Kamala Harris and make an American Flag.While making the flag learners will discover some of the meaning behind the flag. Students will need to have read the book prior to class. Students will need to print off the papers from our classroom, have paper and pencil for writing the letter and a 8 x 12 white piece of construction paper, various shades of blue and red construction/craft paper and, if available, old magazines. Students will use the old magazines to cut pieces of blue and red to make the American Flag.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Maryland Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I grew up in Wisconsin where I completed my undergraduate degree in Early Childhood Education at UW Stout. I've taught for the public school system for 14 years in a variety of positions including classroom teacher, interventionist, ELL teacher and elementary science lab teacher. I hold a Masters Degree in Reading and School Administration from Johns Hopkins. After leaving the public school system I've spent the last several years teaching middle school Science and History at a homeschool tutorial while being a homeschool mom. I enjoy teaching hands on engaging courses that spark the interest of students with the ultimate goal of encouraging them to become life long learners. I welcome student interaction and questions.
In my personal life I LOVE to read, travel and explore new areas, especially the beach! I am a Girl Scout leader and adore every single girl in my troop. As a troop leader I am certified in several outdoors areas- archery, canoe, kayak, camping, etc. I can't wait to share some of my love of the outdoors with families here on Outschool. Reviews
