🤪 This class is for littles that LOVE HAVING FUN!!! 🤪

This 32-week full-curriculum course covers ALL preschool content to fully prepare learners to enter kindergarten.  Throughout this course, students will be learning all letters and their sounds, letter formation, numbers, number formation, sight words, colors, shapes, and following simple instructions. Students are not required to have any previous knowledge or experience with this material prior to taking this class. All of our learning will be done in a warm, silly, laid-back, inclusive, and fun environment. *Homeschool & ESL Friendly Course*

🐶 Our class mascot, Pip the Pup, will join us every day to share some awesome stories that align with the class content. 🐶

I will be using a few different resources to ensure that all of my students' learning styles are addressed. These resources include:
→ Short video clips
→ Songs with Movements to get our bodies moving
→ Full screen, Super Engaging Presentations
→ Graphics & Games
→ Super Fun eBooks
→ Printable Packets for Each Letter, Number, Sight Word, Color, & Shape. (These are posted in our Outschool Classroom on Sundays for the week ahead. These are optional! Just for some extra fun and practice at home, if your kiddo would enjoy them!)

⭐️ This class meets 4x per week. [Monday-Thursday]. We will not have class on Fridays to allow students to rest and recharge over the weekend. We will be reviewing the full alphabet every week, so new learners can jump right in without missing a beat! ⭐️

✏️ Class Materials ✏️
→ Laminated Printed Materials - During the first week of classes, students will be provided with a few printable materials that they will need to either laminate or put in sheet protectors/dry erase sleeves so they can use them during every session of the class. This will include a "Handwriting Mat" and an "Alphabet Chart". Students will also need a dry-erase marker each day for class.
→ Binder (1") with Loose-Leaf Paper- This is where students will keep all of their printed materials. We will add to them each week.
→ A "Tens Frame" Pop-It. (They do not need to have the numbers on them) We will use these for numbers/math time and also for mapping words. Here is a link to the ones I have → https://a.co/d/9mZdfHI
→ OPTIONAL BONUS: Printable Packets - Each lesson will include HUGE printable packets for all material covered in that lesson. You are welcome to print these pages for your learner to do at home, but it is not required. Students are encouraged to bring the letter/number tracing/writing pages and the math worksheets to class with them so that we can do these together during class. If you do not have access to a printer, it's no problem at all. We will cover the same materials on the screen during class. [Side-note: If your learner has taken any of my previous private or group preschool classes, you may have printed some of these materials before. Do not feel obligated to print the entire packet!]
→ If students are completing the optional printable packets, they will need some glue sticks, crayons and child scissors for some of the activities.
