Day 1 – This class will introduce students to Sir Isaac Newton as well as Newton’s first law of motion with two experiments. Day 2 – This class will explore Newton’s second law of motion with an interactive game and experiment. Day 3 – During this class students will explore Newton’s third law of motion with an interactive game and experiment. Day 4 – This class will introduce students to kinetic and potential energy with a demonstration and two experiments.
I am offering this course because I have a masters in teaching and experience teaching elementary level science. I am a former classroom teacher, turned homeschool mom who loves to teach in a variety of environments. I have taught all subjects, but getting students excited about science and nature through hands on, interactive learning is my passion.
No homework is assigned for this course.
*Day One - 7-10 pennies, an index card & a cup needed for experiments. *Day Two - Bowl with a few inches of flour, a marble & paper needed for an experiment. *Day Three - 6+ pennies needed for an experiment. *Day Four - 2 different size rubber bands, A marble, books or cardboard to make a ramp & tape measure or ruler needed for experiments. *Optional, but recommended science notebook for taking notes and drawing illustrations throughout the camp.
