US Grade 9 - 12
In this class we will explore the major topics of Earth Science including geology, oceanography and meteorology. The class will involve a brief slide presentation where students are encouraged to ask questions followed by video clips, games and discussion. Optionally, parents may requests that students receive assignment each week which I will grade as well as tests and quizzes for each unit. This class will be highly interactive and students will be encouraged to participate and ask questions. Class will begin with a warm up and an opportunity for the students to be creative.Then there will be a discussion where students will have the chance to interact with each other and myself. Finally, at the end of each class there will be a review game to help students master the material. No prior knowledge of Earth Science is necessary.
Learning Goals
Students will understand Earth as a connected systemStudents will understand how geology, oceanography and meteorology affect our daily lives.Syllabus
