***Lower class sizes this year, so the spots will fill up fast! Secure your spot today! I teach this same class LIVE 9 times throughout the day. If one class is full, check one of the other times.*** - - This is a COMPLETE curriculum for the entire schoolyear (and summer), including ALL subjects! - - This class is 5x a week. We have 4 LIVE classes Monday through Thursday with 1 recorded class on Friday, which you can watch at your convenience. The recorded class video link will be posted on the Outschool Class page on Thursday evening. ***Great for Homeschool! Perfect for Preschool and Pre-K!*** This class is taught by a degreed teacher with over 20 years of experience in public, private and homeschool settings. In this class, we cover one letter and theme each day. On Outschool alone, she has taught 1768 Learners and counting! *****YOU CAN JOIN ANY TIME!*****Each day has it's own letter and theme.***** This is the same curriculum that I used for in-person private schools teaching Pre-K and Kindergarten. DESCRIPTION: In this class, your child will get a Circle Time experience including Calendar Time & Weather. In addition, your child will get a complete Preschool/Pre-K curriculum with skills pulled from Pre-K & Kindergarten standards, so this class is appropriate for K5 students as well. You will receive a Weekly Lesson plan each Sunday. It will be posted on the Class Page. It will tell you everything we are learning throughout the week, so you can follow along or reinforce the lesson later. No supplies are required, however it is recommended that you print the worksheets and provide items on the Art supply list so your child can make the Art project along with me or later in the day. The items are usually common household items that you most likely will already have. *****This is an Ongoing class, so feel free to jump in any time!***** Each day is independent of the others. We will cover one letter/theme per day in order from A to Z and then begin again with new themes and concepts. By the end of the school year, your child will have gone through the alphabet approximately 7 times. This method is much for effective at long term retention than simply a letter per week. Through this class, your child will know... *All the letters and sounds *How to blend *How to read CVC words *How to recognize, write and count numbers 1-20 and beyond. *2D and 3D *Colors *Math skills from all of the Pre-K standards *Completed 175 Science experiments *Have 175 books read to them Here is the daily schedule: Greeting Time Calendar Time (Month/Count the day/Day of the week) Weather Letter of the Day and Theme Introduction (letter recognition, phonics sound, how to write the upper/lower case letters) Decorate the Letter of the Day (idea for you to do at home later) Language Skills Activity Math Activity Music & Movement Science or Social Studies Activity Art Story Time I teach this class year round. I do take major school holidays off and find that most parents want their children off that day as well for family events. For holidays, I will offer a recorded lesson. If you prefer not to watch the recorded lesson, you can contact me for a refund for that day instead. Also, I take one week off for vacation each year. I will offer a recorded class option, so that your child can continue learning that week. I will send more details home prior to that week. Please note: This class is fast paced and high energy. I keep the students engaged, so we can cover a lot of material. I greet every child by name during Greeting Time at the beginning of class and when saying, "Goodbye," at the end. I strive to make sure they each feel a part of the class and feel loved and important. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or concerns at all. :) Please note: Outschool requires us to make mention that Christmas may be mentioned in December. In addition, some students may talk about Christmas; Christmas trees or other decorations may be present in the background. This class is a great ESL/EFL class. I taught ESL for 8 years privately and in online classes. From the Teacher: I check my messages almost every hour throughout the day. I will try to respond to you quickly should you need anything.

Other Details
Supply List
You may choose to download and print the blank letter of the day sheet for your child to decorate along with me. l send these home each week. You can also find and print them free from kathyahutto.com. I will give students ideas on how to decorate the letter each day. For example, color letter A red like an apple and add black fingerprint ants. In addition, you may print any worksheets that are provided. You may also choose to provide the Art supplies.
