주니어 모험가: 기사, 닌자, 해적 그리고 슈퍼히어로!

This is an introductory course specially created for PreK, Kindergarten and 1st grade students.  At this age, children learn best through play and hands-on activities.  They are also developing social skills and love to practice sharing and communicating their ideas.
The subject matter will be adapted to suit preschool/primary educational and developmental levels.  Students will learn through a variety of approaches, such as read aloud stories, informative slides and graphics, drawing, building and sculpting, movement activities, video clips, games, discussion, rhymes, repetition and more.  
Students will learn about a variety of adventure-themed social studies topics, which all center on popular make-believe themes. Through imaginative play and short lessons, games, drawing, building, sculpting and discussion, students will develop STEAM skills such as observation, problem-solving, critical thinking, communication, building/drawing/sculpting and more.  Math and science concepts are interwoven into lessons.  
Vocabulary words and concepts such as knights, court, castles, medieval, coat of arms, ninjas, spies, Japan, ambush, pirates, ships and their parts, map terms, navigation, constellations, laboratory, genetics, and more will be introduced and used during these interactive, engaging lessons.

The weekly course topics will be:
Week 1 --Knights and other Medieval Royalty
Week 2 -- Ninjas
Week 3 -- Pirates
Week 4 -- Superheroes
"Dressing up" to fit each theme is encouraged, but not required.

Each week will include: Lesson material presented in slides, a short video clip, a movement activity related to the weekly theme, a read-aloud from a related book, class discussion, 1-2 drawing/building/sculpting activities, and sharing.  Some learning games may also be included.  Students will also have the opportunity to share their optional homework assignment  (from the previous class) with their fellow students.
Because this class is for 4-6 year olds, I encourage parents to remain available during class to help with technical or learning issues whenever possible (not mandatory).  You may not remain on-camera per outschool policy, but it is helpful if you can remain close by during class.  I find this creates the best experience for the families who have taken my classes.
