In this 50 minute, multi day adventure camp, students will be introduced to some of the world's most 'awe-mazing' animals: the world's loudest reptile, a dancing spider, mammals that lay eggs, and more! Students will be amazed by the animals' physical characteristics, discuss their unique behaviors, and even go on an adventure to explore their habitats. This class will be a teacher presentation - class discussion/interaction format which will include slides, discussion, video clips, games and more. My teaching style embraces the child's natural curiosity which can lead to extended learning as we indulge uninhibited thought and questions. No prior knowledge required for this class but any the learner brings, is welcomed!

Teacher expertise and credentials
I especially enjoy teaching English and literature, school readiness skills, geography, science, history, cooking and culinary skills! My education is in Elementary and Middle School Education, and I hold a Master's Degree in Developmental Psychology with a graduate minor in Statistics. I have 20+ years of teaching experience including Private Elementary, State University, online teaching (ESL, core education, and enrichment courses), and homeschooling my own son for eleven years. I believe every child has the ability to learn whatever desired, and all learning should be shrouded in JOY; my classroom is a place where serious learning and fun collide! I live in a beautiful valley surrounded by the mountains of Idaho where we have more deer than people. : )Reviews
