This is a follow up course to Potions 1-10. I recommend taking Potions 1-10 first, but students may start with this course if they are 11 or older. Students under 9 may take this course if they have completed Potions 1-10. Each class contains a discussion, lecture, and a potion. We will begin with a review of potions year one, and we will learn how to make a liquid Nox potion. Florean Fortescue will visit Hogwarts to teach us to make our our ice cream as we learn more about matter. Make a density draught in class three. Visit Honeydukes, and make an edible atom in meeting four. Study molecular changes as we make a streeler slime. Scare dementors away with a patronus potion, as we learn about molecules, bonds, and their behaviors. Make a bottled bubbling blob potion to learn about liquid molecular compounds. Learn about chemistry kinetics by making a Peruvian Instant Darkness Potion. Class Topics 1) Nox potion. Year one review. 2) Florean's Ice Cream. Higher level matter. 3) Density Draught. Density. 4) Edible Atom. Atoms and molecules. 5) Streeler Slime. Molecular bonding 6) Patronus Potion. Hydrogen bonds & surface tension 7) Bubbling Blob Potion.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome!
My name is Courtney! I have a Bachelor of Science in Health Science Education from Kent State University. I am also TESOL certified. I have been teaching since 2008. I started teaching exclusively online in the Fall of 2016. I teach science, ESL, Health, and math classes. Many of my classes have a fun theme! I believe students should be comfortable, engaged, and interested while learning.
In my free time, I like to learn, create, and enjoy nature. Some of my hobbies include Oculus Quest, hiking, kayaking, dancing, camping, painting, calligraphy, and music.
I enjoyed reading the Harry Potter and Warriors series and have created classes with similar themes. I am always open to creating new classes with themes that will interest my students!Reviews
