IMPORTANT: Due to low enrollments in the live classes, I encourage you to consider taking the “flex” version of this class. It contains the same content and can be taken on a flexible schedule. What’s more, I offer a “pay what you can” discount for all flex classes! Just sign up for the class and then send a message requesting your preferred discount. Here’s a link to the flex version of this course: https://outschool.com/classes/flex-class-pokmon-and-the-amazing-evolutions-of-eevee-tkHKhryu I teach a lot of Pokemon science classes. I also teach a lot of Pokemon mythology classes! When I went to tackle the evolutions of Eevee, I realized that these "Eeveelutions" deserve a discussion of both the possible science AND mythology behind them. We'll use Pokedex entries and video clips to explore the possible origins of each evolution. Here's the plan for this one-time, 50-minute class: 𝐄𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐞 • Science Connection: dogs, cats, rabbits, and foxes • Mythology Connection: The Gulon from Scandinavian folklore 𝐕𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: gills and fish • Mythology Connection: The Merlion of Singapore 𝐉𝐨𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: electric animals, the domestication of animals • Mythology Connection: Raiju from Japanese mythology 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: the Red Fox • Mythology Connection: Tulikettu from Finnish mythology 𝐄𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: the purpose of whiskers • Mythology Connection: Bakaneko from Japanese mythology 𝐔𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: animals affected by moon cycles • Mythology Connection: Tezcatlipoca from Aztec mythology 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐟𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: animals that can do photosynthesis • Mythology Connection: Dryads from Greek mythology 𝐆𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: the Arctic Fox • Mythology Connection: Yuki-onna from Japanese mythology 𝐒𝐲𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐨𝐧 • Science Connection: animal "feelers" • Mythology Connection: The Moon Rabbit from Chinese Mythology If you'd rather enroll in the FLEX version of this class, here's a link: https://outschool.com/classes/pokemon-science-and-mythology-the-amazing-evolutions-of-eevee-tkHKhryu#uscBKeyeSs ▬▬▬▬▬▬ MORE POKEMON CLASSES ▬▬▬▬▬▬ Are you interested in more classes involving Pokémon?

🎓 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 🎓
From 2005 to 2021 I was a highly certified teacher in Arizona, in Science, Language Arts, and Social Studies. (I allowed my teaching license to lapse after becoming employed by the University of Arizona.) I have a Bachelor of Science in Earth and Space Science Education. I have four children ranging from 9 to 14 years of age. Besides teaching on Outschool, I am an advisor and educational outreach coordinator at the University of Arizona, and I also run my own small business giving astronomy shows in an inflatable planetarium for libraries and schools. In my spare time, I like to hike with my family, go on road trips, and volunteer with the Crisis Text Line (an organization that helps at-risk teens and young adults work through difficult situations).
📝 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 📝
Most of my classes come with projects or extension activities your child can do at home. Because every family situation is different, all of these activities and assignments are optional and at the discretion of the parent.
