Writing involves many processes. Writing can become easier when specific steps are taken. In this class, learners will be led to practice multi-sensory skills before writing descriptive, narrative, how-to, and persuasive paragraphs. This summer themed class will be 25 minutes long and interactive. The class is intentionally kept small, so that all learners needs can be met. Learners are welcome to bring writing materials, but there are not any required materials for class. There will be a slide show for learners to be able to follow along during class. Learners will also receive a handout, but completing homework is not required for class. While all learners are welcome, it would be helpful to have some knowledge of nouns and verbs. Class Schedule: Class 1: List Making and Describing Class 2: Descriptive Paragraph Class 3: Characters, Setting, Problem, Solution Class 4: Narrative Paragraph Class 5: Following Steps Class 6: How-To Paragraph Class 7: Fact and Opinion Class 8: Persuasive Paragraph Themes: June-August (Summer Themed) September- November (Fall Themed -May contain some Thanksgiving and Halloween decorations, but nothing will be scary.) December-February (Winter Themed- May contain some Christmas and Valentine decorations.) March- May (Spring Themed)

Teacher expertise and credentials
Mississippi Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Welcome! I am so excited to begin this journey with you!
One of my greatest joys is sharing my love of reading! I'm certified to teach reading and tutor in dyslexia to all school ages. My main classroom focus is helping students learn to read and spell through Orton-Gillingham based strategies.
I believe that learning to read is an essential part of life. While the journey of becoming a reader is different for everyone, there are components that everyone needs to help them become better readers. In my ten years as an educator, I have taught 3rd grade in public school, taught reading intervention to multiple grade levels in a private school, tutored multiple grade levels in reading, and worked as a private Dyslexia Tutor. Throughout my experience, I have been able to work with large and small groups.
My classes are student-centered and based on the needs of the learner. My goal is to always have learners walking away feelings successful. Learning to read is a journey that I would love to help your learner walk.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and follow my profile if you want to be updated about any future classes. I can't wait to see you in class soon!
