Class experience
In this 4-week class, students will learn how volcanoes form, their composition, and the different types of volcanoes and why they produce specific types of eruptions. Students will learn about rock formation and the characteristics of the rocks formed by volcanic activity. They will be introduced to the plate tectonics that drive volcanic formation and eruptions. We will be doing some in-class labs in this course. It is important for students to have the correct materials. Some labs may...
Students will be able to identify the types of volcanoes, explain how igneous rocks are formed, identify igneous rocks, understand how plate tectonics affects volcanic activity, be able to explain where volcanoes are located, and will build confidence by presenting a poster project on a volcano.
I am a geologist with real world field experience. I have conducted research at Topaz Mountain in Delta, Utah on a rhyolitic lava flow and presented my findings at multiple Geological Society of America conferences. I am also a homeschool mom who strives to present the best information to all students whether they are my own children or someone else's children. I believe the key to loving science is, first, understanding what is being presented and then being able to apply it in a fun and memorable way.
Please see the class description.

This class will be supported in Nearpod. Parents and students do not need to create an account as I will screen share during the lessons. Parent supervision may be necessary during our lab on Plate Tectonics for younger learners.
