In this one-time class, we will read books about penguins including, "Penguin, Penguins Everywhere " and "If You Were a Penguin", imagine life as a penguin label penguin parts and build a penguin togther! Little learners can build great listening, observation and creative thinking skills during storytime, asking questions and using their imagination. In fact, did you know that reading aloud to kids has clear cognitive benefits? For example, brain scans show that hearing stories strengthens the part of the brain associated with visual imagery, story comprehension, and word meaning. One 2019 study from the National Library of Medicine estimated that children who are regularly read to in the 5 years leading up to kindergarten are exposed to 1.4 million more words than children who aren’t read to during those years. While we read each story, we will make observations about what penguins look like, how they look different, where they live, what they eat and how they communicate with each other. We will learn new vocabulary words and fun facts about penguins like how adult penguins swallow their food whole! After our stories, we will work on labeling a penguin and building a penguin of our own using the included printable. Lots of opportunities for discussion and sharing which is encouraged but not required to be a part of this class!
Metas de aprendizaje
Students will listen to stories and ask and answer questions throughout the readings, practice taking turns talking, listening and sharing observations about penguins. We will also work on our fine motor and listening skills as we learn parts of a penguin and build, step by step, a simple penguin of our own.

Orientación para padres
Because of the age of the class I recommend a grown up be within "ear-shot" to help with any technical hiccups (mic and video) that might come up.
Lista de útiles escolares
We will work on the included penguin activities during class, so please print out the 1) Penguin Labeling Sheet* and 2) Make a Penguin printables (cut apart penguin parts before class!) so they are ready to go when class begins! *If your child will prefer to paste the penguin parts words into the correct spaces instead of trying to write them, please have the 6 vocabulary words cut out before class. And, if a printer is not available we can work on the penguin labeling activity on screen and you can draw and cut out the simple shapes to make the penguin on paper at home. ** It's not mandatory that your learner participate in each activity. If they prefer to observe and complete the projects after class, that's OK too!

Hello Outschool Families!
My name is Liz Stone, better known as Ms. Liz, to my 3, 4 and 5 year old friends. Did you know that reading aloud to kids has clear cognitive benefits? For example, brain scans show that hearing stories strengthens the part of the brain associated with visual imagery, story comprehension, and word meaning.
Experts from the National Center on Early Childhood Development, Teaching and Learning also explain that reading books to kids helps expand the number and variety of words they use. Think about it: The books you read often contain words you might not otherwise use in your everyday communications.
While reading a book, you might end up using more specific names for different plants or animals or use more adjectives altogether. And this adds up.
One 2019 study from the National Library of Medicine estimated that children who are regularly read to in the 5 years leading up to kindergarten are exposed to 1.4 million more words than children who aren’t read to during those years.
Another study found that kindergarten children who were read to at least three times a week had a “significantly greater phonemic awareness than did children who were read to less often.”
I created The Pebble Academy, an online learning and play experience for 3-5 year olds, after I fell in love with teaching and learning with Pre-K kiddos as I watched my own kids grow-up. I'm the mom of three and an early childhood educator who wants to help make reading togther and creative learning for 3-5 year olds more accessible! I've observed the confidence my students gain when I encourage them to participate in an online learning and play experience that is welcoming, comfortable and tailored to them.
In my 30-40 minute interactive classes, I will introduce your children to new ideas with activities like picture book reading, songs, show and share and themed activity pages and projects we work on together. Most of my classes include in class activities or ideas for post class at home activities and all my classes incorporate ideas that promote pre-reading skills, early math strategies, nature, community, family, arts and crafts, music and physical activity.
Over the past 12 years, I have worked as a teacher and Site Coordinator for Northwestern University’s Weekend Enrichment Program, I’ve taught in my community's Early Childhood Program, I’ve been a lead teacher for 3 year olds at a local early childhood center and I created The Pebble Academy!
Incorporating fun into reading and learning is what it's all about! For me, nothing compares to sharing an “Aha!” moment with a student. I hope we have the chance to learn together soon and I look forward to meeting you in one of my classes!
**If my posted class schedules don't work for you, I'm happy to try and schedule a class that is more convenient for your learner!
