I am a certified teacher and I've been teaching middle school comprehensive science since 2014 and I taught 5th-grade science prior to moving to middle school. I currently help design activities that support the 7th & 8th-grade curriculum for all of the science teachers. I will be incorporating reading and writing in this science course as well. I have a master's degree in reading and writing, and I am a firm believer in reading and writing in the content area.
Lab supplies will be posted the week before (since this is ongoing) and a detailed list can be provided for the current unit if requested.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
2 hours per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
Google Drive is used for sharing handouts. Nearpod is used for some presenting of lessons. Blooket and Kahoot will be used to play review games in class. Life Science Lesson - asexual and sexual cellular reproduction/meiosis
