Let's learn about weather, meteorology, and clouds! Join Miss Mackenzie in this 3-week self-paced course where we will learn about, draw, and explore different meteorology topics! Each week, we will learn about a different concept through pre-recorded lessons and interactive activities. Each week I have a pre-recorded video where I provide a detailed slideshow and engaging lesson. Each pre-recorded video is approximately 10-15 minutes long. I also provide games or activities each week via Nearpod.com, and review worksheets to help learners retain and review the week's information. I believe learners learn best and retain the most information when they are having fun. I aim to keep all of my lessons engaging and upbeat! Learners and parents can message me any questions or concerns they have at any point. I try my best to respond to all messages within 24 hours. --Course Layout-- There will be no live meetings in this course. Video lessons will be provided weekly for 3 weeks that will include that week's information along with Nearpod modules and worksheets. I will provide pre-recorded video lessons that are 10-15 minutes long, and learners are able to pause and resume as needed. Learners can post their completed drawings or worksheets in the classroom page. Each week's material should take learners anywhere from 30-45 minutes to complete. --Weekly Schedule-- Pre-recorded videos and modules will be posted weekly. --Learner and Teacher Interaction-- I will provide the video lessons and Nearpod modules each week, so learners can complete them at their own pace. Learners are welcome to post their drawings, notes, or activities in the classroom page after completion. I will respond to each post and provide feedback.
Learning Goals
