Space Mission 8-Theories of the Universe, Wormholes, & the Multiverse (Semester)
Class experience
US Grade 1 - 3
As Space is becoming increasingly important in most countries around the world, especially given the amount of Space travel that has recently increased, it is more and more important for our children to know, at least basic knowledge about the Space around us, including differing thoughts and theories about the Universe, how it came about, the Cosmic Microwave Background and why it is important; as well as theories surrounding worm holes, different dimensions, and the Multiverse! Plus, most...
Students will be able to identify the different types of light found in space; recognize the various theories of how the universe was formed; describe what a wormhole is; define what the multiverse is, and discuss the various theories of the universe.
I have always had a love of space, from the moment my grandpa, an amateur astronomer, let me look through the 10-foot telescope he built all by himself, to watching shuttles & satellites lift into the sky, and watching some fall back to the earth. I have spotted some of the largest dust storms to hit Mars, and have enjoyed looking at the various craters on our Moon and seeing the rings around Saturn, all from my own backyard in Missouri & while using other telescopes my grandpa and I built together! I have never ceased my exploration and search, looking to the skies to watch for eclipses, comets, and so much more! My love of all things Space has only increased with time, and I feel it is the next great wave of the future! As a teacher with a Master’s Degree in Teaching & over 30 years of experience working with children of various ages, and more than 5 years teaching students about Space, as well as other Science-related subject-matter, I love sharing my knowledge with the next generation. My hope is to instill the awe-inspiring beauty the Unknown Universe holds, as well as encourage students to dream and believe! I hope to see you in class as we explore the Universe together!

Any learning materials needed will be available for download in the Outschool classroom.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Each learner will need their cameras turned on for this class. Parents may need to assist their child in learning how to "mute & unmute" themselves, as teacher will mute students at times during the "teaching" portion of our class & then ask them to "unmute" to answer questions & interact with the other learners during the interactive, conversational, and review portion of our class. This allows each learner the opportunity to hear what is taught, while still allowing for questions, interaction and such. *YouTube videos will be shared during classes at times, to help learners understand these scientific topics. The links for these videos will also be shared in the Outschool Classroom so parents may watch them later with their child, as desired.
