Jacie Brengman Instructor Profile

Hello! I feel incredibly blessed for the opportunity to teach your child elementary Science/History for 5th and 6th grades. This will be my 4th year teaching this class at Cornerstone Classical Educators, and I absolutely love it! In our class, we learn about engaging and fascinating topics in science & history, all while giving glory to God our Creator.
My husband and I have home educated our 3 children for 12 years, and they currently all take classes at Cornerstone. In 2001 I earned a Bachelor's of Science in Occupational Therapy from Indiana University. I have worked as an occupational therapist in different settings with both children and adults for 15 years. In the past I have taught in various environments such as preschool therapy groups, elementary-age Sunday School, middle school age cooking classes, marriage prep classes & Vacation Bible School at our church.
Currently I teach Elementary Science at Cornerstone Classical Educators for 3rd/4th & 5th/6th grades. Next year I will be teaching two 5th/6th classes of both Science and History. In the past have been an assistant leader in our daughters' American Heritage Girls troop (my daughter is preparing to advance to the Pioneer level next year). I also enjoy singing, hiking and playing the flute.
I delight in learning new things along with my children, one of the great perks of homeschooling. Seeing the magic of learning happening though the eyes of students is a great joy for me. Thank you for considering placing your child in my class. I feel truly blessed to be able to teach them, & I am looking forward to teaching this class again for the 2023-2024 school year!
