Literature Circle
Grades: 3rd and 4th Grade
Course Description: This Literature Circle class is a place where students will dive
into books with cooperative groups to help stories come alive. Students will share
interpretations, understanding and comments about the text. We will explore the
elements of literature through hands-on activities, movement and connecting to their
own lives. Students will work on vocabulary, comprehension and see how stories can
take you to another time and place.
This will be a supportive environment for all learners where they can share their
thoughts openly and build community. It will be fun, engaging and my desire is that kids
would love to read!
* Each week I will send home a pacing guide, reflection questions and recommended
assignments. I am so excited!!!
Cost Per Semester: $250.00

Bio: Hi, my name is Alita Pregizer. I am married to Chad Pregizer and have
two kids, who I have been homeschooling since Kindergarten. I love soccer,
adventures, mountain biking and hanging out with my family and friends. I
enjoy seeing what the Lord has for me each day and I am privileged to be a
PC Prep teacher. It is a sweet blessing.
I love getting to know students, seeing them inspired and have a love for
learning. I believe all students learn differently and am excited to bring in
all styles of learning into the classroom.
I graduated from Humboldt State University with my teaching credential in
Multiple Subject, Elementary Education. I taught elementary school for 10
years in Los Angeles and middle school in Aliso Viejo.
