In this one time course, your child will learn about the life cycle of a butterfly. I will read the story, "The Very Hungry Caterpillar." This book is rich in learning concepts such as counting, days of the week, healthy foods and of course the life cycle of a butterfly. I will encourage your child to join in and read along, this is a great prereading skill. I will get your child engaged by asking questions individually and as a group. Children can participate and ask questions and share any knowledge they have about butterflies. I will use a butterfly icon; we will make a butterfly and a caterpillar, children will share their artwork. Come join me for a fun hands-on interactive class that I am sure your child will enjoy!

Supply List
Children will need six green circles, Crayola markers, glue stick, a sheet of white paper, two coffee filters, small spray bottle, one pipe cleaner and a wooden clothes pin. I will also send a templet of a butterfly to print upon enrollment. Parents, the coffee filter butterfly is a fun but messy activity please make sure your child works on a tray or covered table to protect any furniture. Please be close by in case your child is in need of assistance. Thank you!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello, my name is Anna Contreras, I am a preschool teacher with twenty-five years’ experience. I have experience working with older children six to ten years old as a teacher assistant. I have two degrees, a bachelor’s degree in Liberal Studies and an Associate Degree in Education.
My educational belief is every child has a right to a safe learning environment. As a teacher it is my responsibility to be a positive influence on children's love of learning and to foster their self-esteem. I love working with children, I am animated, silly, and fun which keeps children engaged and interested. In my experience children learn through laughter and silliness.
Teaching tools I use are puppets, music, games, dance, musical instruments, I also use Manycam to display pictures on screen to engage children learning process. Classes I hope to teach on Outschool include early literacy, math and science, arts and crafts, nursery rhymes, music, and dance.
On a personal note, I enjoy spending time with my family, my husband and I have two adult sons, a daughter-in-law and four grandchildren. I love spending time with my two dogs, Marley, and Bella. I enjoy TikTok and learning new dances with my granddaughters.Reviews
