Learn all about the world's marsupial mammals! [animals, zoology, mammalogy]

Class experience

US Grade 8 - 11
I am a zoologist who enjoys sharing my love of the animal kingdom with lifelong learners of all ages. I especially enjoy connecting children to nature, and keeping their natural scientific sparks lit!  

One of my primary research interests is Australasian fauna, and in particular the monotremes and marsupials.  (I also teach a companion class on the monotremes, as well as a general introduction to mammalogy.)

I also have nearly two decades experience as a home education advocate, including homeschooling my own children from preschool through high school. I am a big proponent of flexible learning, individualized education, and supporting fellow neurodiverse learners, so please don't hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or requests for additional resources.  We all learn in our own way and time, but everyone should have the chance to learn about how cool animals are!
Homework Offered
There is both reading and multimedia viewing material assigned with each week's topic.
2 - 4 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Formal assessments will only be provided if the student or parent requests it in advance.
Grades Offered
All weekly lesson materials will be free and provided by the instructor. These will include both directly downloadable printables and files, and links to additional online resources (web pages, videos, articles, etc.).
This class will provide information on animal anatomy, including the reproductive system, and natural behaviors, including predation and mating.  (I know I give this standard disclaimer for every zoology class, but it is especially relevant here -- marsupials have some unique anatomy, and there will be visuals!)

Online resources: This class directs learners to watch curated video content on YouTube and may also direct learners to additional information on science-related pages (e.g., a research journal or zoological database). No online account signups are required.
