Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
This is a fun biology class that looks at gross animal behaviors! Humans aren't the only animals that poop, and many other animals are even more disgusting. From the slimy, snotty hagfish to hippo farts and animals that eat poop we will explore it all! 
We will discuss a variety of life, from insects to mammals, to not only laugh at all of the gross things animals do, but also to get a better understanding of life! The yucky things that animals do have a reason behind (pun intended) it. Oftentimes the way and what of how an animal is gross is important to it's survival!
 Students will take away several fun facts about the gross and foul of animal life, and have an interactive experience discussing life with the class. Students will learn:
-Adaptions are a change or the process of change by which an organism or species becomes better suited to its environment. environment. 
-All about animal poop, including the shapes, smells, and textures!
-All about animal farts, why an animal farts, and the different noises a fart can make.
-All about animal burps, why an animal burps, and how animal burps change our environment!
Other topics that will be discussed are:
-Animal vomit
-Slime
-Sweat
-And stink!

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! My name is MacKenzie Piacenti, but I generally go by Kenzie. I teach a variety of science classes, mainly Biology and animal facts. I also teach Sociology, English Literature, and college advice classes. I graduated Susquehanna University in 2023 with a dual degree in English Literature and Sociology, University Honors, and Summa Cum Laude. I am also a soon-to-be PhD student (in August!), studying Sociology at Howard University. My teaching experience includes being a Teaching Assistant at Susquehanna University for three courses, having taught at Peak Academy for Community Learning for three years, and I have previously been staff at an environmental science camp in Pennsylvania, USA called Conservation Camp. I follow the camp of teaching that follows Harvard psychologist Howard Gardener's theory of multiple intelligences, essentially stating that everyone has a unique learning style and a unique intelligence, and if you engage the students in what interests them they will be more receptive to your teaching. I always try to have my classes be student lead so they can learn while being engaged! Finally, I am the proud parent of a very curious cat, if you take my classes there is a chance you will see one of them!
