STEM: Hands on Science Experiments and Kahoot!
Class experience
US Grade 5 - 7
In this ongoing class we will perform a different science experiment each week. Topics stand alone so students can join at any time. We will also play a science kahoot game to review what we learned at the end of each class. I teach in an interactive way! I love involving students in discussion! I will post extra learning videos and all the supplies needed for the experiments in the classroom every week. SCHEDULE SUMMER 2023 Week of Jul 12th: Easy Volcano Experiment Week of Jul 19th:...
