Just a few more details. As for the academics of preschool, I have a different opinion than most people. I think preschool is more for social skills than for academics, especially at this age. I am going to be making the curriculum based on the kids on the class. I will focus on building their small and large motor skills, work on their names (recognizing and spelling), colors, and shapes. We will work on some letters but I am not going to be doing a different letter each day of the week. I taught this way when I taught at Weber State in Ogden and I think it works the best.
It is $50 for the whole year because I am doing it more for Andrea than anything but also as a trial run to see how I like it. If you want to pay more you can but that is all I am charging this year. I have always wanted to teach preschool so I am starting small to work everything out. I am going to have 6-8 kids total (including Andrea) but I am leaning more towards 6 kids just because it easier.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED I NEED TO KNOW SOON AS THERE IS A LOT OF INTEREST. IF THERE IS ENOUGH I MIGHT CONSIDER DOING AN AFTERNOON CLASS AS WELL BUT PROBABLY WON'T MAKE A DECISION ON THAT UNTIL AFTER SCHOOL STARTS BECAUSE I NEED TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS WITH SAMMY AND KINDERGARTEN.
Preschool for only $50? Can I send Cameron? That's such a killer deal and with a great teacher like you, that's hard to pass up. We'll just have to figure out to 750 mile commute...
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to have Cameron come...I just don't know how cost effective it would be after you figure in the traveling costs!!
