In this self-paced class, students learn all about bilateral symmetry, radial symmetry, and asymmetry found in nature. With every video lesson, I show students real world examples then we model with clay or play doh. Every video lesson provides a way to model the concept with or without cookie cutters. Every lesson also includes a unique printable worksheet for students to draw the type of symmetry they learned about. I do not teach with slideshow lectures. For every lesson (three lessons total) I show animal models and then use clay to reinforce concepts. Video lessons are each between 3-7 minutes in length. Please see supply list for required materials (most of which your child already has or can be easily made.)

Teacher expertise and credentials
Virginia Teaching Certificate in Science
I teach many other engaging zoology classes on Outschool! Before I became a teacher, I worked with wildlife, in a microbiology lab, and also in animal welfare. I have always been called to work with children and have volunteered at girl scout camps, zoo camps and children's hospitals. As a teacher on Outschool I am committed to bringing visual and tangible content to the classroom. I believe teaching is more than just a lecture. My students learn best by seeing examples of concepts, and by breaking new content down into manageable pieces. I am always available for questions and support!Reviews
