In this ongoing second-grade semester class, students will cover essential subjects four days a week. As an experienced classroom teacher for 27 years as well as teaching on Outschool since 2020, I believe in the three C's of learning.

Community- our class begins with a short social time so that learners become friends and I get to know them better

Consistency- we will work hard and play games hard and our learning will be methodical

Curriculum- Having taught lower elementary for such a long time, I believe in the fundamentals of education, hands on learning when possible, and games for review

Our weekly schedule includes new phonics sounds, math concepts, and writing practice, all complemented by engaging review games for enjoyable learning.
