English Teacher
My name is Cassandra Chan.
I recently graduated from St. John’s University with my bachelor’s degree in Childhood Education with a concentration in social studies. I love history and find it so fascinating!
My favorite musical is Hamilton. I once did a lesson on making rap and poems about the American Revolution with 5th graders and they loved it! I love being able to incorporate different subjects into one big lesson.
Courses I would like to offer :
Poetry writing for ages 6-13. Poems can include free verse, concrete poems, acrostic poems, haikus, etc.
Read aloud with written portions.
For example:
Hungry Caterpillar with science (learning about the life cycle of a butterfly) or practicing math (sequencing of days and how much food the caterpillar eats).
Learning how to write persuasive essays.
(Ages 7 and up)
