Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 4
Beginner - Intermediate Level
In this 7 unit self-paced class, we will be exploring the animals of the 7 continents. 
Each unit consists of one or two short videos; which contain a brief description of the continent of the week, followed by information on 6-10 different animals from that continent. The information will include the physical characteristics, diet, and habitat of each animal, as well as vibrant pictures. This will be followed by the "quiz," where I will describe an animal from the lesson and the students must figure out which one it is. 
Next, the students will follow along with me as I demonstrate the craft. 

Students do not need to have any prior knowledge on geography or animals in order to participate in this class.

Here is the breakdown of the lessons:

Lesson 1: Europe
Craft: Wolf Mixed Media

Lesson 2: Asia
Craft: Rocking Asian Elephant

Lesson 3:  Oceania
Craft: Kangaroo with Joey

Lesson 4: Antarctica
Craft: Fluffy Penguins

Lesson 5: Africa
Craft: Savannah Scene

Lesson 6: South America
Craft: Colorful Toucan

Lesson 7: North America
Craft: Beaver Bags

I look forward to teaching your children!
