Join me in this class where we'll hear a new short story each week with a main character who faces a challenge. This main character has a problem that he or she must get some students' help with in finding a solution. Students will be given a weekly challenge where they'll need to use few materials to create, develop, and build something. Materials will be posted each week prior to class. I love helping students be successful and will ALWAYS try to help find a substitution, if need be. This is a fun STEM challenge for students to bring out their creativity and help our main character to be successful! The stories are uniquely created and last around 5 minutes. The majority of class time will be spent doing the STEM challenge. I always encourage students to continue working if they don't get finished in time. They are more than welcome to post in the classroom, send me a message, or share next class, all are optional. Below are some class topics coming up over the next month. Please note any unique supplies next to the class name, however, prior to class each week a full list of supplies will be posted in the classroom. Each of these activities will come with a storyline, main character, and a challenge to complete! Challenge: 4/6- Water bottle fountain challenge 4/13- Peep and jellybean challenge 4/27- DIY Peep slime 5/5- Bird nest challenge

Hi! My name is Kristi and I am so happy you ventured over to my science learning lab!
My goal is for students to have fun, maybe get messy, and gain a love for science! My teaching style is interactive and hands-on as I try to bring science to life. My classes work well for the kinesthetic learner.
You will find that most of my classes have a hands-on component to complement the learning experience and my presentations are very visual.
I do my very best to keep prices lower than average as I understand how quickly classes add up for parents. Keeping the prices lower also helps parents as there are material lists for experiments and activities. However, almost every class that I have has a coupon! Please reach out if you need assistance.
When I am not teaching I love to spend time with my daughter outside, gardening, raising chicks, and learning new skills. My goal is to combine some of my hobbies while teaching.
I have been teaching environmental science to students in pre-k through 12th grade for over 12 years. I have taught in various settings including outdoors, in classrooms, and online. I currently run my own business developing and delivering science lessons and custom curriculums to students in school settings, early learning centers, scouts, libraries, and more! I received my B.A.s in Environmental Science and Sociology in 2016 and my M.S. in Resilient and Sustainable Communities in 2019.
