Class experience
US Grade 3 - 6
With the animal kingdom as big as it is, even the most knowledgeable biologists, zoologists, and fanatics are always learning more about the creatures we share our planet with. In this ongoing class, we will dive into the life of one animal every week and create a fact sheet for that animal. What makes this class different than other classes of mine is that students will get to decide which animal we discuss the following week! The general overview of the class will be as follows: 1)...
Learners will learn many things such as behaviour, diet, and fascinating facts about a specific animal each week.
I have a strong passion for animals and have even worked with many species for over 10 years. I love getting others excited about the animal kingdom and feel as though I can approach this topic with a lot of fun and excitement for the learners. I've also been a classroom teacher for over five years
Homework Offered
Students will have a week to find information about the selected animal for the following week. While this isn't necessarily homework or mandatory, it will help with the discussions and team building within the class.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class

Grades Offered
1 file available upon enrollmentI will provide an (optional) handout that students can use for note taking if they would like to. It is strongly recommended that students bring their own journal, notebook, binder or some other method of note taking with them. This will be a great way to keep track of all the animals discussed week to week and a good way to keep track of learning.
➡️ Websites ⬅️ When researching, students are welcome to use websites such as https://www.iucnredlist.org/ - to find the level of concern of a creature https://pixabay.com/ - to find pictures for our fact sheet I will be using these websites in class though students are not required to go to them at any point. They are used as tools for us to build our fact sheet. Please make sure to have a discussion with your learner for when they are doing research outside of class in terms of appropriate websites to use etc. ➡️ Articles ⬅️ There may be times when articles may be used if there is a neat finding with the weekly animal. The articles used, despite best efforts in selection, may mention things that may not be for everyone. For example, mortality of certain species, evolution, a new hunting method for a predator to catch their prey, reproduction etc. Please think about the sensitivity of your learner in regards to current news in the Zoology world before enrolling. The terminology of the articles may range from easy to advanced (in terms of understanding) depending on the article topic, though explanations and debriefs will occur to make sense of it more. ➡️ Canva ⬅️ From the class description: All throughout the class, as we are brainstorming and discussing, we will also be putting together a basic fact sheet for the selected animal using Canva. Students do not need to have an account or enrol in any way - they will watch as the information they share is added to the sheet and the completed product will then be shared in the classroom for the learners to view/save/add to their notes!
We will be using Canva to create our fact sheets
