This is a Flex class, meaning NO LIVE CLASSES. Video lessons with a project demonstration will be posted in the classroom each week. Students will interact by posting photos of their work and by providing positive feedback to their classmates about their completed science projects. The teacher will provide feedback on students’ science experiments, guide discussions, recommend different techniques and answer questions. 

Weekly Flex Class Format: 

NEW CONTENT: Weekly video lessons with a project demonstration will be posted in the classroom each week at the start of each sessions' weekly cycle. Students will review video. 

DISCUSSION PROMPT: Students respond to a weekly discussion prompt posted by the teacher. 

COMPLETE ASSIGNMENT: Students spend time completing their science experiment every week. 

SUBMIT ASSIGNMENT: Students post photos of their completed science experiment in the classroom on the designated post. 

FEEDBACK: The teacher and students post positive feedback about each other’s work. It’s very important that we are kind to each other when posting feedback in the classroom. 

Why choose a Flex class? 
• Flexible schedule classes are great for families who have busy schedules. 
• Learners from all of over the world can participate in class. 
• Learners can work at their own pace.  

I’ve combined my favorite hands-on science experiments into this really sweet science class! 

Week 1: Oreo Moon Phases 
This science lesson is designed to teach children the phases of the moon the fun way, with Oreos! I will introduce the phases of the moon and students will spend time creating the phases of the moon with Oreos. 

Week 2: Cookie Fossil Dig 
Learn what a paleontologist is and how they excavate fossils by completing a cookie fossil dig. Students will learn about paleontologist and fossils, then they will practice excavating bones (chocolate chips) out of the Earth (a chocolate chip cookie). This science lesson is a fun, engaging, hands-on way for students to learn what it’s like to be a paleontologist. 

Week 3: The Three States of Matter with Root Beer Floats 
This science lesson is designed to teach children the three states of matter while they make Root Beer Floats. I will introduce the three states of matter and students will spend time making Root Beer Floats. Students will observe the three states of matter as they make their Root Beer Floats. 

Week 4: Hot Cocoa Sink or Float Experiment 
Learn whether objects sink or float the fun way, with hot cocoa! This science lesson is a fun, engaging, hands-on way for students to learn whether objects sink or float. Students will learn about density and how the density of an item will either cause it to sink or float. Then we will make hot cocoa together and test which toppings sink or float in the cocoa. Students will make predictions and write about their findings. When their experiment is complete, they can drink their hot cocoa! Yum!
