Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
How does the solar system hold up its pants?
***With an asteroid belt!!!***

I love outer space, and no matter how old I get, I still enjoy discovering new things about it. This 4-part space camp takes the students on a deep-sky dive into our solar system. They will learn about and discuss the 8 big planets (4 terrestrial and 4 gas), the 5 dwarf planets, and the different possibilities of meteoroids, asteroids, and beyond. I like telling jokes to get and keep the kids involved in the conversation during lessons. I will always encourage an educational discussion and promote curiosity with the students. I will lead the discussion but will also ask their thoughts on what we're learning throughout the class. Whether it's a one-on-one class or a group environment, my number one goal of every session is to inspire a love of learning new things. I will issue a Blooket game after every class (no student account needed! 😉), which is always optional, but always encouraged. 

Classes will be around the 45 minute mark, but sometimes we go over if there's a lot of questions. 😊

1st class: terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars)
2nd class: gas/ice planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune)
3rd class: dwarf planets (Ceres, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake, Eris)
4th class: comets, asteroids, meteoroids
Learning Goals
The main goal of this class is to launch a lifetime of space curiosity for these students. Students will discover new details about the planets, their moons, and star constellations.
