This will be an indepth study of the microbial world. We will look at Germ Theory and Louis Pasteur. Discuss the difference between antibiotics and vaccines. We look at the history of epidemics and pandemics, disease identification and management, identification of pathogens, how disease is transmitted, and immunity. We will also explore specific organ system diseases. Having a general knowledge of biological concepts is beneficial but not required. Textbook and additional materials will...
Hi, I have been a science teacher for over 18 years. I am a homeschool mom to a 5th grader and a 10th grader. I have homeschooled them from pre-kindergarten up until now. I have a master's degree in general science and have taught a variety of science courses at the middle, high school and college levels. I believe learning can be loud and exciting especially in science. This class gives you an indepth journey into microbiology especially if you are interested in becoming a doctor, nurse or in some other related healthcare field.
Students will need the following: Bacteria growing kit (already prepared or The Nutrient Agar in powder form) with at least 10 Petri dishes Sterile swabs (swabs in a package) toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash, or floss. Student Microscope Bacteria Stain (Methylene Blue) Microscope slides/coverslips Eyedropper lighter/candles paperclip/needle clean water latex gloves nose/mouth mask aquarium/pond water sample of onion dirt/sand yogurt leaf clear nail polish Your microscope should have at least a 10x eyepiece and three objective lenses from at least 4x to 40x. The methylene blue can be found at aquarium stores. It is a chemical. I strongly suggest for the younger students to have someone help them and store it in a cool, dry place in your home.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
*Class six will deal with specific microbial disease that affect humans, some of the images will be graphic due to the nature of the disease itself. Please let me know if you do not wish for your child view those images.
