Description

Class Experience

Through slideshows, videos, and class discussion students will learn all about hurricanes, from what they are, to how they are formed, and safety tips. Learners will then have the opportunity to do some hands-on learning and create their very own Hurricane in a jar with simple household ingredients. We will also discuss science safety and complete a short, interactive group quiz, through class discussion and slideshow to gauge the learners' understanding of science safety prior to starting...

This class is taught in English.

We will have a short interactive quiz to gauge the learner's understanding of science safety prior to starting any experiments.

A glass jar or container with a lid
A liquid soap that contains Glycol Stearate (Softsoap brand has worked for me in the past – has to be the opaque kind, not the transparent type)
Water
Food coloring

30 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

We will be creating hurricanes in a jar using household materials. Parents/Guardians may want to be around to supervise or assist as needed. Please remember that only the enrolled learner may be on camera per Outschool's safety policy.
