Welcome Families – Are you looking for an interactive engaging course for your 4–6-year-old? If so, then you have found it! This course is for the preschool to first grade learner!  This class is also great for ESL learners to build vocabulary and enhance language skills. 

Whether you are looking to supplement an in-person program or looking to add to your homeschool curriculum, then do not hesitate to join today. A certified experienced early childhood teacher will guide and develop critical early learning skills to best prepare your learner for school success. This class is also great for current early and primary grade learners in need of additional support in achieving skills and learning goals.

Learners may join class with a weekly subscription at any time.  Each week is independent and does not build upon previous weeks. Each session learners will develop and enhance fundamental reading and math skills through active hands on activities.  We will enjoy many great stories and utilize music & dancing breaks in between learning activities to get the wiggles out before moving onto the next learning activity. During class we will use interactive slides, hands on materials and at time movement videos for wiggle break in between learning activities. Please have a dry erase board & marker available for your learner to use during hands on activities. Paper and pencil/markers work too:)

Class Polices:  

~Learners will be moved from the waiting room into the class at the scheduled start time.  If no learners are present, I will log out of the classroom after waiting for ten minutes.  
~Each class session will begin at the scheduled time even if learners are not present.   
~Parent/Caregivers are encouraged to be nearby off camera (to the side of the screen/camera as this is an Outschool policy.) to assist your learner with technical operations of the live session (sign-in, making sure camera is turned on, muting/unmuting if needed, and sign-off at the end) I usually do not mute learners, however, if there is a feedback noise or noise in the background such as a tv or someone talking on a phone then I will use the mute feature so that all can hear throughout the class. 
~Due to the number of learners and their pace moving through the planned activities, it is possible that we may end a few minutes early or go over by a few minutes. 
~I will follow the refund policy outlined on the Outschool website. 


Thank you for I thank you for the exploring my class and I thank you for the opportunity to teach your learner.  My goal is to help your learner build a strong educational foundation and a love for learning.
