NOTE: I also offer this class for ages 5-8 and 13-18. Please see my profile for these class listings. In this fast-paced, interactive class, we will look at pictures of axolotls while discussing their characteristics including habitat, adorable looks, regenerative properties, and other facts about this unusual animal. We will briefly discuss their presence in Minecraft. Through learning about this animal, we will define characteristics of amphibians and clear up misconceptions we discover. Students will be encouraged to ask questions and participate in the discussion. We will play a game of Kahoot! at the end of class. A Kahoot! tutorial will be provided upon enrollment for those unfamiliar with this timed multiple choice game. You will not need a second device for this game. Meet the Adorable Axolotl is relaxed, casual, and fun, as well as informative! This class was inspired by the curiosity and interests of my students in the class, "Keeping Up With the Kingdoms" which I offer in both ongoing and flex formats. PLEASE READ: Due to the high demand of this class and the fact that there are many learners waiting to enroll, I am not able to give last minute or after-class transfers or refunds. Per Outschool policy, I am also not allowed to share the recording of the class with any student who I have not "verified," or seen on camera personally. Please mark your calendars if you do enroll! I can't wait to see you in class! :) Outschool's Happiness Guarantee and Refund Policy: https://support.outschool.com/en/articles/16379-outschool-s-happiness-guarantee-and-refunds

I've been studying science all my life. My father was a renowned herpetologist. As such, I grew up surrounded by animals, plants, and other life forms. I followed my interests in college by studying biology as well as education. I taught middle school science for 21 years, then worked as the middle school science education specialist for the State Department of Education in Alabama for 6 years. In retirement, I am still actively involved in many scientific communities, and stay engaged with groups such as the North American Association for Environmental Education and the National Science Teachers Association. I am passionate and knowledgeable about the study of life, and about passing on this passion to youngsters.Reviews
