US Grade 3 - 6
Have you ever heard of the mountain pygmy possum? What about the resplendent bush frog or Scott's stick insect? In this class, we will learn about some of the rarest and most vulnerable species on earth and how we can help protect them. Each week, we will learn about one main cause of endangerment and extinction, as well as several animals at risk from this issue. Using slides, photos, short videos, and discussion, kids will get to learn the ecology, physiology, and behaviors of these unique...
After six weeks, students will be able to thoroughly discuss major issues in conservation and how they affect animals. Students will have a comprehensive understanding of several species of wildlife and strategies that humans can use to combat extinction.
I got my bachelor's degree in biology (wildlife ecology) and my Master's in science education. I am a high school biology, environmental science, and zoology teacher and have experience working with many animals, including from sloths to poisonous frogs to sea anemones. Animals are my favorite thing to teach! Before teaching, I conducted small mammal research in Florida and worked at an aquarium, two major science museums and a primate sanctuary. I love zoology and giving students the chance to expose themselves to more specialized topics.
Homework Offered
Each week, students will receive a pre-recorded video lesson (15-30 minutes) of me teaching the weekly topic and a guided notes sheet that students may use if they would like. Supplemental videos, discussions, and homework assignments will also be in the classroom to allow students to explore further. Students will also be prompted to answer discussion questions and interact with peers around the world. There will be a short quiz each week and a test at the end of the unit. Both are optional. I will provide feedback to all submitted work and can provide a numerical grade if desired.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Feedback will be given on all submitted assignments. If desired, I can provide a formal numerical grade.Grades Offered
