Marine Biology! Learn Cool Creatures & What a Marine Biologist Does. FLEX

In this four weeks flex class, learners will learn the basics of what a paleontologist does for a living, how they hunt for fossils and carefully unearth them. Your learner will also gain knowledge on the Sharks, Whales, Bioluminescent Creatures and Mollusks (octopus, squid etc.).  No prior knowledge is needed.  Learners will learn key terms and will be provided with a weekly coloring sheet, worksheet and short quiz at the end of class each week.  There are no live meetings, but I am available to answer questions throughout the course.  Learners will be encouraged to show pictures and videos to show off the completed projects.  Learners will interact by adding positive comments on each other's accomplishments by posting in the classroom.
