*In this four-day camp, we will delve into four top predators. For each predator, we will find out how it survives and thrives in the world. We will take a look at its geographical location and habitats, how and what it hunts, any threats it may face, how it raises young, and everything in between! Students will see photos and videos, learn vocabulary, and discuss the topic with other nature enthusiasts. Participation is encouraged! *Upon enrollment, students can print an "Apex Predator Fact File" to keep track of information about each predator and a coloring page featuring the four animals we covered during the camp. Both are optional! *This camp features past lessons from my class "Animals at the Top of the Food Chain."
Learning Goals
Students will learn about nature including the food chain, habitats, ecosystems, predators, prey, defense mechanisms, camouflage, and the associated vocabulary.

Hello! Thank you for stopping by! I love students of all ages and I love teaching a variety of topics. Some of my favorite classes to teach are reading, nature, and science. I try to create a positive and encouraging atmosphere so learners feel comfortable in participating. I want students to have fun while learning!
I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Minnesota State University, a Minnesota teaching license, and a 160 hour TEFL certification.
I have been teaching and guiding children since 2000 as a preschool/childcare provider, an ELA teacher in public school classrooms, and an ESL teacher in online classrooms.
I love teaching, but I also love being a student! I take as many classes as possible on whatever subject piques my interest. Teaching and learning are my life!
When my three daughters are home from college we love going for hikes, cooking together, and of course, snuggling our two funny cats, Pumpkin and Marigold.
I hope to see your learner in class!Reviews
