The ability to retain knowledge is heavily impacted by one’s FOUNDATION bank. Fun, engaging, interactive and intentional approaches to building/strengthening foundational skills will be provided daily to help ensure learners are prepared to face their next academic level with excitement and confidence. Class will consist of the following: ABCs/phonics, sight words, reading, writing, spelling, drawing, math & social. The infusion of singing/ movement, finger play, social interaction, and games will be the surprise. Shhhh!!! A fun theme will be featured to accent the week. ⭐FEATURED EDUCATIONAL WEEKLY THEME ~(Dec. 30th-week) Cause and Effect The following is the day-by-day breakdown of our foundational skill strengthening: 📚Day 1 & 3 (Reading Days) Reading Segment (any combination of the following) ▪️days of the week/months of the year ▪️ identification/sound of the 2 letters for the week (more letters will be discussed to help broaden letter knowledge) ▪️guided writing instruction ▪️drawing ▪️comprehension ▪️syllables ▪️rhyming ▪️reading ▪️sight words ▪️sentence structure ▪️grammar/parts of speech ▪️book elements ▪️and more 🧮Day 2 (Math Days) Math Segment (any combination of the following) ▪️Number sense (counting to 100, number identification, one to one correspondence) ▪️guided writing instruction for the number of the week ▪️drawing ▪️shapes (2D/3D) ▪️highlighted mathematical concept (Examples: sorting, same/different, patterns, addition, subtraction, etc.) ▪️colors Day 3 (Review) 🎶The infusion of singing/movement, finger play, social interaction, and games be strategically positioned to create a well-balanced classroom🎶 👩👧👦🦋Social Studies/Science will be explored to help maximize learning. Important Course Information ▪️Class expectations are always stated in the beginning of class to help create and maintain a respectful classroom. ▪️Affirmations are stated daily to build and strengthen inner confidence. ▪️Muting happens as a whole group/individually as needed to help regulate background distractions. This helps to ensure that all my friends can hear and absorb all of the daily agenda. ▪️Students will have an opportunity to share each class, practice public speaking and let their beautiful light shine. ▪️Important social skills such as taking turns, listening to their classmates and patience will be strengthened along the way. ▪️I’m a strong believer in the concept that teamwork makes the dreamwork to help students build confidence and eventually more independence. Parents please be in ready mode to help your child during class as needed. We will have a fun and productive learning experience. Are you ready? Let’s Go!

Greetings!
My name is Teacher Aneesa and I am beyond excited to be present in the Outschool community to help spread the love for learning. I come to you with a Masters of Arts in Teaching specializing in Early Childhood Education from Walden University and an ESL certification (TESOL). I am a licensed teacher who has been in the teaching arena for 14 years and I can honestly say that I still truly love what I do with every fiber within me. My teaching experience includes pre-k (80-85% ESL students every class), kindergarten and 1st grade. Also, my high schoolers and elementary child have expanded my teaching abilities as well. Children are our precious gifts and I am passionate about participating in the process of helping to mold them into their best selves. Exposure to all aspects of education is a must especially when it comes to building that educational foundation.
The production of readers is where I am most passionate about therefore, I will provide classes that focus on building literacy (letter names, phonics, writing, vocabulary and grammar). I love math and science as well so there will also be sprinkles of these classes throughout. I have always been a math nerd on the inside so I have to let that inner nerd shine at times by helping students build skills with number sense, addition facts, multiplication facts, etc. Being fluent in math basics is a very important test strategy to master in order to improve one’s success rate in mathematics.
It is very important for students to fall in love with education early on. Therefore, I believe in a very interactive/hands-on teaching style that is fun and engaging. Just seeing kids have enjoyment within the learning process brings my heart joy.
Something fun about me is that I am totally family absorbed and love to sing. I am married with 3 athletic girls who pull me in all crazy directions. I love the crazy fun times and wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. If you catch me singing in class, please join in. We can sing and retain together.
Looking forward to meeting you!!!
Kind Regards,
Teacher Aneesa
