This one-time middle school science class is a fantastic way to supplement your student's science curriculum needs! Students will meet once for 55 minutes and be provided with optional assignments to complete outside of our class time. This class will include several activities designed to capture every type of learner including illustrating, organizing, reading, writing, watching, researching, exploring, and even game stye activities! I'm a firm believer in creating engaging learning experiences, and I know middle school students will sit around the dinner table excited to tell you all the amazing things they learned in class. As an added bonus. you didn’t have to bend over backward to teach or prepare activities!! 📍This specific one time class will focus on diving deep into plant growth. ✏️Objective: Students will be able to explain that plants get materials needed for growth from air and water. Students will also be able to describe evidence, and models that support the argument that soil is not a main component for plant growth. ✏️Students will provided with 2 optional assignments, 1 optional quiz, 1 optional Blooket game, and one optional experiment to support what we learned in class. 5-LS1-1. Support an argument that plants get the materials they need for growth chiefly from air and water. [Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on the idea that plant matter comes mostly from air and water, not from the soil.] ❔❔❔ If you have any questions about this class feel free to message me. I would be happy to try to accommodate your child's schedule if one of my current class times does not meet your needs. ❔❔❔ _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ Other Classes offered by Sparkology Education 🧪🔬🧬 Spectacular Science Series 🧬🔬🧪 📍5th-6th Grade📍 Q1- Biomes / Abiotic & Biotic Interactions Q2- Planets / Seasons Q3- States of Matter / Properties of Water Q4- Cell Theory / Plant & Animal Cells Q5 - (4-Week Class) Lunar Cycle 📍6th & 7th Grade📍 Q1- Body Systems - Emphasis on Nervous System Q2- Conduction, Convection, & Radiation / Energy Transformations Q3- Weather Maps & Air Pressure / Convection Currents Q4- Plate Tectonics / Volcanoes Q5- (4-Week Class) Hurricane Formation 📍7th & 8th Grade📍 Q1- Structure of Life - Genetics Q2- Intro to Chemistry - Atoms, Molecules, Periodic Table, Chemical Changes Q3- TBD Q4- TBD Q5- (4-Week Class) TBD 📍One-Time Classes📍 Middle School Science: What Causes Tides?

I’m Elizabeth, owner and online teacher at Sparkology. I’m also a mom, and I get it - we have to be masters at juggling roles in today’s world. Every day we are parents, tutors, teachers, principals and curriculum designers! Playing every part in your child’s parenting and education is exhausting.
So when it comes to helping your kids understand and enjoy subjects you’re not an expert in, it’s the cherry on top of your stress. That’s why we offer unforgettable classes for 3rd through 8th grade that are sure to keep your kid learning - and having tons of fun along the way.
Our classes do so much more than give you a much-needed break. Your kid will be excited to join class each week. Each class and assignment is designed to spark curiosity and make learning fun.
