Students who love learning about animals will definitely enjoy this class that will cover twenty-four different animals that play tricks in order to survive. This class will consist them the different animals' habitats and physical traits that keep them alive. Students will learn and discuss by viewing videos that run from about 3-6 minutes with intermittent stops to explain different traits. They will proceed to have coloring sheets or crafts. They will review through guided classroom discussions. Then, Teacher Pat will show either models or preserved specimens of these particular creatures. This class will appeal to the senses of sight and hearing. Coloring or crafts will be the manipulatives the children will do as they listen to the lesson. ***Students do not need to be able to read to take this class.

Texas Teaching Certificate in Science
I love animals! I have a wide collection of specimens and models I've collected through the years. Having been a Biology teacher for thirty-five years has allowed me to teach students all the way from second grade through high school. Every summer, I offer summer camps for kids ages ranging from 6-12 years of age. I now want to offer this same experience on Outschool. Teaching is my joy!Reviews
