1 hora por semana. At the end of each class, I give three optional extra learning assignments. The homework could be anything from writing about the animals we learned about in that class. It could be a poem or short story about the presidents. It may be to design the White House or create a zoo for all the president's animals in Minecraft. Not each student will be doing the same assignment. Kids will enjoy learning more if they are a part of creating the homework.Certificado de finalización

Presidents come in all shapes and sizes, and so do the pets they've had while living in the White House. Being a president is incredibly stressful, and having a pet can make the job a bit easier. But these pets aren't always what you'd expect. Some are gifts from other countries' leaders, while others might be acquired in unusual ways, like accidentally crossing into someone else's territory. And it's not just the presidents—sometimes the First Ladies have their own pets too. In this class, we'll explore the history of each president and the pets they had while living in the White House. Using PowerPoint presentations, videos, and photos, we'll dive into the fun, exciting, and sometimes weird stories behind these presidential pets. Students are encouraged to ask questions and participate in discussions throughout the class. This is a unique opportunity to learn fascinating facts about our presidents and their furry, feathered, or scaly companions.
