Class Experience

In this one-time seasonal class, learners will engage in science in a fun, hands-on way.  Everyone will be encouraged to bring a winter or holiday item to class, and students will get the opportunity to interact and practice taking turns with a winter show and tell.  

Following show and tell, the teacher will give a brief overview of the scientific method and chemical reactions. 

 To close class, everyone will create an "exploding snowman" using household items.  We will have the opportunity to do the experiment twice- this will help if we need to work on technique!  Check the supplies list below and in the classroom.

To close, we will have a frosty freeze dance!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My passion is teaching young students the importance and fun in science, technology, engineering, art, and math. I am a certified k-12 science teacher with a master’s in biology. I believe in hands-on learning and appealing to young learners’ interests to help them find their passion for STEAM! I’m a big animal lover and have been on an African safari three times! My idol is Jane Goodall, and I was fortunate enough to visit her chimpanzee sanctuary  one of my trips!
