1 hora por semana. I provide feedback on all posts that students make. Optional end of class: Create one painting representing a biome you want to visit or of an animal that you would like to see and then share it on the Padlet with a description of your art.Calificación
Students either share paintings with me for feedback or post them on the Padlet, and I will give positive feedback there.Experiencia de clase

I love teaching painting classes and sharing my love of travel and nature. I've been a Science and Social studies teacher and have traveled to 19 countries. This class combines my experience with my love of art and travel. Students will get 8 video lessons of painting instruction in acrylic paint (40 minutes-1+ hours a week, depending on the painting) and an interactive Padlet classroom to ask questions and share art. I will teach students the tools used while painting and how to start a project. I will introduce brush and blending techniques in each lesson. I will cover setting up, storing paint, and sketching a template when planning a painting project. In each session, I will share facts and stories about each region and discuss some beautiful places I have seen. I will also talk about the natural resources in each region and some of the wildlife there. Each week, students will receive a video lesson they can watch while they paint. This is a great resource because they can stop and replay videos as needed. I will make the paintings listed below each week. I will also provide some reference photos for ideas of other items that they could make. In each lesson, I will talk them through the techniques that I am using and how they can do them. Projects for weekly video lessons: Lesson 1: North America (The Desert & the Kit Fox) Lesson 2: Australia (The Temperate forest and Koalas) Lesson 3: South America (The Rainforest and Toucan) Lesson 4: Europe (The Boreal Forest and the European eagle owl ) Lesson 5: Africa (The Grassland and Giraffes) Lesson 6: Asia (Temperate Rainforest & the Red Panda) Lesson 7: Antarctica (The Arctic & Penguins) Lesson 8: The Ocean: (Fish & the Coral Reef) I am skilled at differentiating content for many ages and learning needs in a kind and supportive style. I will have a camera on my hand while I paint, but it will also be visible on the screen at the beginning and the end of the lesson for directions. Learners will not need any prior experience but will need painting materials. I encourage parents and students to reach out with questions or technology struggles if they need help. I can help problem-solve or make additional mini-lessons when requested. I always strive for a positive five-star experience for my students and love teaching this class.

Students will learn the following:
- Facts about the world's biomes and how some continents have more than one biome. As well as information about the wildlife and natural resources found in these biomes and what makes a biome a certain way.- Stories of wildlife in each biome and some reference ideas to explore beyond our painting of the week.
- I love painting and find it a relaxing and enjoyable hobby.

Necesidades de aprendizaje
My classes are designed to explore creativity. I believe they are for everyone and am happy to help wherever I can. I have 16 years of experience working w/ students that have unique learning needs: Public education, camps, and Afterschool.
Orientación para padres
Students will have access to a class Padlet where they can see images of and like the work of others. All posts need to be approved by me, so only appropriate posts will go up. The Padlet works like a giant bulletin board where students can see their peer's work and get more ideas about what to try independently. They can also ask questions in the classroom and share techniques that work. I will also use Google slides to show reference images to look at. When parents enroll in the class, they will get a QR code and a video on how to post on Padlet. Padlet is free to join. I just log-in with my Google account. My videos get too large, so I post them using a private YouTube video link that will work for viewing the lesson each week.
