What's included

Class Experience

This flex class will focus on hands on science activities and experiments. Many will have a gross or "ick" factor to help engage the kids and get their minds moving. Each week we will complete either a "gross" experiment or STEM activity to include biology, anatomy and chemistry. Being a flex class, learners will visit the classroom each week to see an introduction video to that week's activity or experiment, including a brief explanation of the science at work and example as well as listing of materials needed for the week. Videos of the weekly topic will be posted at the beginning of each week, in the morning (EST). Videos will include examples, discussion and teacher created slides. Learners will interact with each other and the teacher by posting videos or pictures of their experiments/activities. Questions can also be posted in the classroom. Learners will also find additional activities posted each week that go along with the experiment. Those extra activities are optional but will support additional learning. I will check in throughout the week with posts, comments and extra videos depending on our topic that week. Group discussions will take place in the classroom throughout the week and learners are free to post their questions there as well.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
The skin layers cake and the mold growing experiments will require using the stove to heat water for the jello. Parental guidance is advised for that activity. Parents should provide oversight for other experiments as you deem appropriate for your child's age and ability level.
Supply List
A supply list for each activity will be included in the classroom each week.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Education from George Mason University
Hi!  My name is Amber. I'm a homeschooling mom of two and I joined outschool to provide fun & educational content to preschoolers and elementary aged students. I love hands on learning and enjoy offering classes that offer that opportunity. I provide classes on  hands on science, nature based learning, STEM and book clubs. My classes often follow my own kids interest, so you'll likely see classes involving space, dinosaurs and legos. My professional background is in early childhood education. I hold a Bachelors degree in Family and Child Development and an M.Ed in Early Childhood Special Education. I plan to offer my students engaging classes and hands on learning in a variety of topics. If there's a class you're looking for that I might be able to help with, please let me know. I look forward to seeing you in class!
