Holiday Special: Boo! Animals With Spooky Halloween Names (Ages 13-18)

>>>PLEASE READ BEFORE ENROLLING: The live portion of this class is an hour-long, fast-paced, lecture-based multimedia presentation, with limited Q&A breaks as time permits -- you know your learner(s) best, so please consider if the session length and format is a good fit for them<<<

IIn this seasonal session we will check out some SPOOKY animals. 👻 Well, actually most of them aren't very spooky at all...but they do have common names which fit right in with Halloween. 🎃 In addition to animals actually named for the holiday, like the Halloween Crab, we will meet animals named for ghosts, goblins, skeletons, and more...and maybe a couple of candy ones too. 😉

This single session will consist primarily of slides and multimedia content accompanied by lecture, but there will be opportunities to ask questions as time permits, and the classroom board can also be utilized before and after class to engage in discussion about the topic. Additional resources will also be posted in the classroom after the live session ends to help further your understanding and study of the animals introduced in class!

Also, just FYI: I like using my Cool Science Words and exposing children of all ages to proper scientific terminology and nomenclature. I believe it's never too early for children to hear us using our "grownup" vocabulary. (That being said, of course I define these words when they first come up, and will provide supplementary vocabulary sheets in classes with a lot of subject-specific terminology.)
