Let's Explore Earth! Weekly Geology Lessons for 11-14 Year Olds (Ongoing)

Hello! Welcome to "Let's Explore Earth! Weekly Geology Lessons for 11-14 Year Olds". In this weekly ongoing course, we will cover a large range of topics in the field of geology. This course is perfect for students who are interested in the field of geology. It's also a great fit for late middle school/early high school students who would like to further their knowledge or study topics that aren't covered in their school's curriculum. Please see the following schedule for class topics. The age range of 11-14 is flexible; please contact me with questions/concerns if your learner is outside the age range :) No prior knowledge is necessary to enroll in this class. If content is carried over from a previous lesson, we will review all necessary information for students who were not in attendance at the previous lesson.
