This enrichment class is opened with a brief description of what a biography is and why it it's important. Students talk about famous baseball heroes (e.g. Jackie Robinson, Babe Ruth, or a modern player the student likes and tell who their favorite player is and why they admire them. Get $20 off my class "Swinging into History: Write the Story of a Baseball Hero" with coupon code SUEMAHAC1Y20 until Oct 25, 2024. Get started at https://outschool.com/classes/swinging-into-history-write-the-story-of-a-baseball-hero-KQgTM06l and enter the coupon code at checkout. I will share a slide of the basic structure of a biography: a) Introduction (Who is the person?) b) Early Life (Where did they grow up? What was their childhood like?) c) Key Accomplishments (How did they become a baseball hero? What are their major achievements?) d) Challenges (Did they face any difficulties? How did they overcome them?) e) Legacy (Why are they remembered? How have they impacted the sport?) From pre-selected articles or short bios, the student will gather quick information about their hero. I help them identify key points for each section of the structure listed above. The students will be guided through the writing process of brainstorming, writing an outline and a rough draft, editing, and writing the finished biography. I stress a strong introduction and conclusion, and lots of details in the body. Students can read their biography aloud or share their screen with the class and me. We will give feedback of what we really enjoyed and what might be improved. Then we'll celebrate their work, and encourage them to continue exploring biographies of others. Just ask your librarian where biographies are located! I am very involved with my classes, and genuinely curious about their life experiences as they relate to baseball. I think this class will be very enjoyable.
學習目標
Analyze the genre of biography and be able to recognize the parts and features.Communicate about their favorite player and evaluate what makes them admirable.

Since I'm new on Outschool here are testimonials from students and parents from my business, Threshold Tutoring, out of Seattle, WA.
Excellent tutor! So thankful for how Sue educates and the breadth of material she covers. Above and beyond!! Parent of 5th grade girl at Cincinnati Country Day creative writing and drama.
Fabulous, thoughtful, insightful tutor! Same parent of 8th grade brother at Cincinnati Country Day receiving enrichment ELA tutoring focusing on literature and academic writing.
Sue, thank you so much for your time and for sharing your expertise with our team and students! I appreciate your dedication towards finding the strengths and motivations for each of our students.

Ms. Sue is a very helpful tutor. She helped me pull up my grades. When we started a year ago I was below average. Now I am advanced. My reading scores went up. I have more confidence. She helped me become a better writer. It was fun to read play scripts with Roderick. She also taught me better coping skills. I don’t burst out crying now. I don’t always think I’m gonna fail stuff anymore. Without her I don’t think I would have made it to where I am now. I’m ready for middle school. Most definitely ask if Ms. Sue can help your kid.
5th grader from Washington D.C. (note: This student’s scores on “The Reading Inventory” given by her school 8/31/22 and 1/18/23 went from Lexile 788 to 1162; Percentile Rank 47 to 95; NCE (normal curve equivalent) 48 to 85; and Stanine 5 to 8.
Ms. Sue is kind and loving and smart. I could hardly read in 2nd grade and I just took the STAAR Reading and felt confident. I feel fine to read out loud in class. I’m sure you will like Ms. Sue as much as I do. She is forgetful sometimes and that makes her cool and so fun.
4th grader from Texas who I have worked with for two years on word recognition using explicit, systematic instruction in phonics, spelling and sight recognition; and teaching language comprehension including background knowledge, vocabulary, grammar and syntax, verbal reasoning, and reading fluency.
I highly recommend Ms. Sue as a tutor. Her exceptional skills and experience in test preparation helped my son improve his SSAT score from 1490 to 1941 in just five months. Ms. Sue's dedication and ability to create an engaging learning environment have made a significant impact on my son's academic progress. With Ms. Sue's help, my son was able to get into his preferred school, which speaks to her effectiveness as a tutor. I strongly recommend Ms. Sue's tutoring services to anyone looking for academic support that can make a significant impact on their child's educational journey.
