Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 4
Axolotls are amazing amphibians! During this multi-day Cold-Blooded Creature Class we will dive deeper into the live axolotl tank, and discover more about the animals that live inside. This is perfect for any young herpetologist who is interested in caring for an axolotl some day, has one at home, or just thinks they are really CUTE! 

On day 1 we will meet the Learn-A-Lotl tank team, explore axolotl anatomy, and see the colors they can be. Day 2 will be all about tank design. Learners will follow steps to add filtration, decorations, and more to their own paper tank. Finally, on Day 3 we will do a live water quality testing and learners will help to read the results. 

Each day will also have special add on activities that can be completed before the next live session. Label an axolotl with only silly answers, cut out paper axolotls to live in your newly designed tank, and color your own water quality test chart with axolotl health emojis. 

If you are looking for more, you can also enroll in one of our companion classes.

I have been researching and preparing to care for my axolotls for close to 10 years. I am now lucky to share my home with 3 of these amazing amphibians. I'm so excited to share their feeding time with the Outschool community.
