Description

Class Experience

In this two day class, students will be introduced to 10 different types of extreme weather. Each class will begin with a vibrant presentation, introducing 5 types of weather/natural disasters.

Finally, the class will end with a science experiment related to the lesson. Students may watch me conduct the experiment, or...

Students will learn about 10 types of extreme weather/natural disasters, participate in 2 science experiments, and be able to play "Name That Weather."

I am a certified elementary school teacher. I taught science for 5 years; including a big unit on weather each year.

**Participation in the science experiments is optional. Students can watch me conduct the experiments if they do not have the following supplies.
Week 1: Tornado in a jar
Empty, rounded glass jar with a lid(pickle jar/jam jar.)
Water
food coloring
spoon

Week 2: Edible tectonic plates
Graham crackers (or any type of square/rectangular cookie/cracker)
Whipped cream/icing/peanut butter (anything soft and spreadable)
plate
spoon

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Students will be assessed based on their participation.

30 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

No guidance is required, though students may need a bit of assistance with the science experiments at the end of the classes.
