Class Experience

Come join us in a galaxy far, far away...In this one time class, learners will dive into the world of Star Wars, learning about and discussing the basics of the many stories, series, and animated shows that catapulted Star Wars into what it is today. These include, but are not limited to, The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, A Solo Story, Rogue One, The Mandalorian, and The Book of Boba Fett. We will learn about the planets, characters, plots, theme, etc. of each story, series, and animated show. We will learn how these stories and shows brought in a whole new generation of fans. Some of the questions that will be answered and some things they will learn about are: Why is Star Wars so popular? Who lives in the galaxy? What were The Clone Wars? Who are the most important characters? Who are the good and bad guys? What are the light and dark sides? Who are the Jedi and the Sith? What is a Mandalorian? How does everyone get around? What exactly is the force? Why are the animated shows so important to the saga? How did Boba Fett survive The Sarlacc Pit? And so much more!
This class will serve as a helpful guide for students in fully understanding the Star Wars universe and saga. Students will also learn how to carry on social conversations and respectful discussions with their peers. I will teach using google slideshows and video clips to guide the weekly discussions.
It may benefit learners to watch some Star Wars movie episodes, series episodes, or read books related to Star Wars before coming to class each week, but it is not necessary.

Learning Goals

Students will learn how to have a respectful discussion with their peers while sharing their thoughts about Star Wars.
Students will compare and analyze characters, episodes, planets, vehicles, ideas, etc. from the Star Wars universe. 
Students will learn about and explore character traits of heroes and villains.
Students will discover more about each of the Star Wars movies/series and explore how each plays a part in the saga.
Students will understand more about our solar system in comparison with the Star Wars universe. 
Students will learn all the basics of Star Wars to help them better comprehend the saga.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Violence and very dark moments or subject matter in the saga may be disturbing for younger students.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
