Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 3
This class will allow students to explore many different ways to ‘level up’ their writing. I will teach students how to take boring sentences to the next level by adding descriptive words to convey meaning.  Students will practice how to include specific words in their writing to ‘show, not tell’ what they’re thinking.  Also, to sharpen their craft, students will learn how to spice up their writing by adding a variety of sentence patterns such as: hooking the reader, using synonyms to replace boring, overused words, adding ‘wow’ words, using figurative language ( similes and alliteration), and using their five senses. 
This is an interactive lesson!

Learning Goals

Students will improve their ability to recognize and write complete, detailed sentences.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Iowa Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello, my name is Kathleen Bernath Jenkins and I am a recently retired elementary public school teacher in Missouri. I have a bachelor's degree in elementary education and a master's degree in differentiated instructional methods. Most recently, I have taught fourth-grade students the core academic skills: reading, grammar, writing, math, science, and social studies.
     I have a passion for teaching children the skills needed for them to be successful citizens. I believe all children can achieve success at school by differentiating instructional methods, which allows for individual growth and expression. My approach to teaching is to focus on best practices, those proven to be successful across all educational settings: teacher modeling and interaction with students, setting clear objectives at the start of each lesson, encouraging group participation, and debriefing together at the close of a lesson.
     Besides my love of teaching, I also have a greenhouse and enjoy growing and propagating plants, especially tropical and rare varieties!
