Did your learner love my bath bomb chemistry class and wants to explore further? Over the course of three days, we will make three different luxurious botanical bath bombs: chamomile, lavender, and rose. At the beginning of each meeting, we will discuss the plant we will use that day, then, like the chemistry-based course, I will make the bath bomb, step by step, demonstrating as your leaner follows along at home. Learners may choose to color or scent their creations. Learners are encouraged to interact, and ask (and answer) questions. Meeting #1 - Chamomile Meeting #2 - Lavender Meeting #3 - Rose

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Kristin. I was a licensed Teacher in Oregon prior to having children (ages 8-12) and focusing on their education. I earned a Masters of Arts in Teaching degree from Western Oregon University in Middle and Secondary Education for Science and Health.
Most my classes focus in health and science, particularly the Middle School level, as I’ve found I enjoy that age group the best. I do have many interests and hobbies, so some classes venture outside the core academic realm and into hobby land. We live in southern Colorado on a small ranch where we enjoy animals, gardening, and self sufficiency in a very challenging climate.
My goal is to instill a desire to learn with lessons that are meaningful and enjoyable. I remember sitting in a desk in front of a whiteboard, bored out of my mind, thinking, “There is no way I will EVER need to know this!” Yet, when I became an adult, I quickly realized, that yes, I did need to know most of the information I was taught. I have needed to go back and relearn much of what I previously ignored as useless information. When you can apply information to your life it becomes meaningful. I like lessons to focus on application: how can I use this knowledge in MY life; why do I need to know this? I am so excited to meet your child and help them apply the knowledge they're acquiring to their life!Reviews
