In this class on Chinese mythology, your child will learn the origins of the Chinese zodiac. I will tell the story of the “Great Race,” a folktale from Ancient China about how the mythical first god of China, the Jade Emperor, had animals race across a river so that the Chinese calendar could be created based on 12-year cycles related to the animals. No knowledge of China, Chinese, or world history is necessary. Students will learn about the 12 animals of the zodiac that correlate with the students' own birth years, and will also hear about other animals from different years of the zodiac. For geographic understanding, we look at a world map to locate China and understand where the country is in the world. With this fun lesson, my teaching style is to get students involved in discussion about Chinese culture and the animals of the Chinese zodiac.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Hello! My name is Anna and I have a PhD in the History of Chinese Religions, as well as an MA in Art History and a BA in Philosophy and Romance Language. I have taught many classes in the humanities, and especially classes about Chinese, European, and North American philosophy, art history, and history of religions at the college and university levels. I have also taught these topics to my two children (elementary and middle school ages), both of whom have been home/unschooled for several years. They take Outschool classes too and that is how I learned about this wonderful platform for learning. In addition to teaching my own children, I have volunteered in the elementary school classroom, interacting with a wide variety of children and their different learning styles.
My lessons often include art and images to give students beautiful representations from which they can learn, while also helping students who learn better visually.
I love teaching children and exploring topics in the humanities with them. From a young age, children are curious and intrigued to learn about the world we live in, often approaching the world in ways that are highly philosophical and creative. I hope to nurture, encourage and further develop those skills in them through my teaching.
