Learners may wish to have a laboratory notebook and pencil for all labs Biology Lab: white flower (carnation, clover, etc), various leaves, spinach, glasses, water, food dye, nail polish remover, coffee filters Chemistry Lab: 1/4 head of red cabbage, egg whites, water, white vinegar, baking soda/sodium bicarbonate-baking powder, rubbing alcohol, glasses/cups, heat-resistant bowls, plastic dropper/syringe/teaspoon, tea kettle/pot, stove or hot plate Physics Lab: several spoons or pencils, string, thumbtacks or tension rod, meter/yard stick or tape measure, stopwatch Genetics Lab: strawberries, small glasses/plastic cups/test tubes, sandwich size zip-top plastic bag, mesh metal strainer or funnel with coffee filter or paper towel, toothpicks, water, salt, rubbing alcohol, dish washing detergent Weather Lab: water, ice, pot, heat resistant bowls, oven mitts, mirror, balloon, glass bottle with small mouth, empty plastic water bottle with cap, matches, stove or hot plate
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
3 hours 45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
In the chemistry and weather labs, we will need to boil water and either hold objects or manipulate objects near the steam of the hot water.  Caution must be taken so there are no burns.  Parental supervision may be required or the student can abstain and watch the experiment online.

Please note this class uses third party resources (Gimkit, Quizlet, Kahoot, and Blooket).  There will be a link shared during class for these online trivia games, so no personal account is needed.
