  Around the World Jr.
   
  

Students will board imaginary planes and boats (chairs set up) to explore 7 two-week trips per semester to well-known foreign countries. Children will be exposed to each nations flag, map location, food, weather, basic natural resources, unique customs and very basic vocabulary. We will have lots of hands-on games, paper projects, stories and puzzles.  Each student will be given a backpack and passport as well as keep a picture journal of their discoveries.

  Instructor: Jacobsen, Doreen
  Instructor Bio:
  I am Doreen Jacobsen and my passion is to to creatively interact and teach younger children. I have taught first grade for several years in Detroit and substitute taught kindergarten through fifth grade before that. I have18 grad level credits towards my Masters Degree but raised kids instead of finishing that pursuit. I especially enjoy teaching almost any subject in which I can make learning stimulating and FUN !!! I especially love teaching my interactive geography class, AROUND THE WORLD, because I believe God has used so much creativity and diversity (not to mention humor ) in creating all the peoples and nations of His world, my personal favorite. My "FEARFULLY and WONDERFULLY MADE" human anatomy class ( not available now) is personally motivating as well, and the students seem to get a lot out of that class too. BRAIN GAMES helps me keep my mental faculties young as your children and I enjoy stimulaing exercises for our minds. Above all, though, I love inviting the person of Christ into our classroom so that HE receives the glory for all learning and prized relationships that form as I also learn from these beautiful, young, and intelligent kids. Parents are always welcome to join us in the learning process too, pop in any time.
