“I have watched my son BLOSSOM in Sarah's classes! He just loves them and has been able to share so much of himself that he normally doesn't within the safe environment she creates for kiddos to explore their creativity. Highly recommend!” --Donna 

“She takes classes on outschool as well and of all of her classes she likes your class the best”--Marcia 

 

“For all my homeschooling friends My son has been in several of her classes and loved every one. To say I was impressed with how she ran the classes and interacted with the kids is an understatement. Sarah is truly wonderful && her classes are worth every penny”--Anna Marie

Mondays:


Storytime/Art (6-8 yrs) from 11am-12pm

Each zoom class, I will read a story to the kids.  We will discuss it afterward as a group.  We will be covering things like plot, characters, themes, setting, point of view, ect but in a way that feels natural to this age group.  I do not believe in putting kids on the spot.  The kids will have freedom to answer questions and speak or not to.  I will encourage kids to join in and use their voice but with no pressure.  My goal is to create a very comfortable environment.  I find that by doing so, even kids who are more reluctant to speak up, over time end up feeling safe and comfortable enough to start sharing.  There will be activities that I will give the kids to work on during the week between our zooms.  This will mostly be drawing or creative expression opportunities for them to be able to share in the next zoom.  I will be setting this zoom at an hour long, but depending on how many sign up and how the energy flow is, they may end up at 40 or 45 minutes long as this is a younger group.

 

Creative Explorations (12-15 yrs) from 4-5pm

Welcome to all things creative! I used to teach a Writing/Drawing class for this age group in the past and we had so much fun!  I wanted to change the title and focus of the class a little, though, to open it up to other forms of creativity. We will still include drawing and writing but there were many who expressed wanting to work with things like music, painting, sculpture, storytelling, drama and more. This class will be a mixture of creative explorations I bring to the table as well as the ideas from the folks taking the class. I love to hear from them and want to include activities that they feel inspired and passionate about as well. 

 

Tuesdays:

Exploring World Mythologies (Ages 9-12) from 11am-12pm

Over this 6 week course, we will be covering many mythological topics. We will spend time each week exploring a different cultural/historical mythology. Along with the information and activities I bring to the class, each participant will be choosing a particular mythological character to be learning more about and sharing their findings with the group. We will cover the basics of Greek and Roman Mythology as well as some Asian and Native American Mythologies. We will also discuss the differences between Mythological and Mythical creatures and look at examples of each in some of the popular books of today. I am so excited to be offering this new class. Please join us!

 

Wednesdays:

Exploring Animals of the World (6-8 yrs) from 11am-12pm

I have taught many versions of this idea while teaching in person and now am so excited to finally add it to my virtual program. This is a wonderful opportunity to practice an integrated learning philosophy. We will be learning about animals around the world, of course, but so much more. We will be integrating geography, science, social studies, history, reading, writing, speaking, and more. I will have animals that I will be presenting to the group, but I want the group to be very involved in what we learn about as well. So each participant will get to choose an animal to be learning about and reporting back information about to the group each week. That being said, I want to say a word here about participation in my classes. I will never put anyone on the spot or force anyone to participate in a way that makes them feel anxious or uncomfortable. We can always find a way for everyone to take part in a way that works for them. I am so excited to learn about animals together!
