WELCOME SHOOTING STARS! 💫 Shooting Star Academy’s full curriculum Kindergarten class gives learners a complete classroom experience with handwriting, science, storytime, beginning linguistics in Spanish, English Language Arts, and Montessori math. Our teachers work hard to ensure each student’s needs are met, and we love helping children improve all of their scholastic skills! Each lesson begins with calendar time, charting the weather, sharing time, and warm-up songs. English days consist of Montessori handwriting with a sand tray (or appropriate substitute), Animal Alphabet Phonics, beginning Spanish concepts (like “what day of the week is it?”, or “what is the most common weather type in class?”), and/or story time. Science days incorporate STEM projects or experimental worksheets that will be based on our monthly themes. Projects will be completed once per month, and we will work on matching, identifying, and classifying the other weeks. Math days use a variety of techniques between Montessori and Reggio Emilia. This age group will have topics that range from counting to 20 all the way to fractions and telling time. We will use several manipulatives over the course of the year which will be posted as necessary over the course of the year. All manipulatives will be provided weekly to the student and parents in the classroom tab by the assigned teacher the Sunday before scheduled classes to give families time to prepare. One scheduled week is taught as follows: Monday: Science Exploration Tuesday: Math Concepts Wednesday: Storytime, Phonics, beginning reading, Thursday: Math Concepts Friday: Handwriting practice, basic grammar, and story retelling Here are samples of the curriculum for one week: Week of October 31: Spirit Week! Monday: Science “Monster Potions and Molecules” presentation (dress up day) Tuesday: Math - Counting up to 100. Two digit adding and subtracting (wacky hair day) Wednesday: Story time “My first book of five senses”,** Animal Alphabet Phonics, pink series words (snack show and tell) Thursday: Counting up to 100.

WE ALSO DO NOT HAVE CLASS ON US NATIONAL HOLIDAYS. THESE WEEKS ARE SKIPPED AND THE DAYS ARE REFUNDED.** The monthly themes are: January - Birthdays/Human Body February - Friendship/States of Matter March - Farm/All About Plants April - Weather/Types of Weather May - Rainforest Exploration/Insects (Summer classes run from June-August) September - Camping/Forest October - Professions/The Five Senses November - Space/Outer Space December - Winter!/Arctic and Polar Animals *A full book schedule is included in the Supply list section. **TEACHERS WILL BE READING THESE BOOKS IN CLASS, YOU DO NOT NEED TO PURCHASE THEM.

학부모 가이드
Since these classes do include crafts and science projects, there are potential hazards for young learners. Example: using scissors in class. It may be necessary for a parent to supervise cutting, pasting, or other hands-on activities.
수업 자료
Every Sunday parent’s are given a weekly resource packet in the classroom tab. There are materials that will need to be printed out, so a printer is required to participate in these classes.

We are a group of seven teachers: Ms. Daniela, Ms. Theresa, Ms. Victoria, Ms. Teri, Ms. Natalie, and Ms. Jennifer.
We all have experience and training in Montessori and Reggio Emilia teaching techniques. All of us have had formal teaching positions in various capacities such as children programs or local school districts.

Shooting Star Academy Teachers are required to have 5+ years of teaching experience.
We all have experience and certification teaching Montessori Math and Grammar, English Language Arts, STEM Science, and basic Spanish learning.
✨COURSES WE OFFER✨
We specialize in interactive, exciting online learning for primary school-aged children. We focus on ages 3-8, and we teach a full year curriculum with educational techniques and resources inspired by Montessori and Reggio Emilia from preschool to second grade. The ones that we have had the privilege to work with so far are all homeschoolers, and they primarily live in the USA.
Our star classes include American Sign-Language, English Language Arts, Spanish Language Arts, Science, and Math. These classes are modeled with Montessori techniques that have been developed and tested over hundreds of students over the past year.
We offer a few fun and interactive specialized Spanish courses, like Minecraft Spanish and weekly build and talk with legos. Everything we work on incorporates hands-on learning and student-driven discussions while maintaining small class sizes.
Ms. Natalie is a certified American Sign Language teacher, and she has over 16 years experience in learning and teaching ASL with both children and adults.
Grant Pray is a mechanical engineer for BAE Systems (British Aerospace Engineering), and he works on ICBM projects. In his undergraduate degree, he spent 5 years private tutoring ages 16-40 to help put himself through college. He has extensive knowledge in Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus.
Kendal Smith graduated from BYU-Idaho where he help pay for his BS in Mechanical Engineering by tutoring all the core math classes for engineering. HIs first job after collage was a mechanical designer for a MEP consulting firm where he optimized the HVAC system in all types of buildings in Southern California. Kendal is currently a sales engineer and has become a fluid hydronic specialist for the HVAC engineers designing with his equipment.
It is our goal to have long term, ongoing classes that give students freedom to come and go as necessary, while still covering topics that will set them up with a firm foundation in all core subjects.
We hope to see you in class soon!
