This live class will cover some of the most interesting and unique reptile species in the world and will introduce learners to what makes reptiles unique! The students will not only learn about the reptiles themselves, but they will also learn about subjects such as conservation statuses (endangered, extinct, etc.), classification, geography, climate, camouflage, etc. In the lesson, we will start of with understanding what classifies a reptile, we will also briefly compare reptiles to amphibians so that there is a clear distinction between the two categories. Then, the learners will be introduced to 8 different fascinating and unique reptiles. The lesson covers information about each of the eight reptiles' habitats, diet, conservation status, lifespan, size, fun facts, and more! The reptiles that are in this lesson are as follows: Parson's Chameleon, Green Sea Turtle, Gharial, Chinese Crocodile Lizard, Komodo Dragon, Rhinoceros Snake, Smallwood's Anole, and the African Pancake Tortoise. There is a "part 2" of this lesson with more reptiles and information, but it is posted as a separate class listing (feel free to message me for the link if you cannot find it), so that the learners can find a time that fits their schedule. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or requests! **This class does NOT have live reptiles brought by the teacher because almost all of the reptiles that are learned about in class are not pets. There are lots of being pictures and information!** **This class is the same as the first lesson of the flexible schedule class “Wonderful World of Reptiles & Amphibians.” This is one of the live class versions of that flexible schedule class. I was getting many requests to turn it into a live class, so I created 4 one time live classes that are the same as the 4 lessons in the flex course. They are: “Wonderful World of Reptiles (Part 1),” “Wonderful World of Reptiles (Part 2),” “Wonderful World of Amphibians (Part 1),” and “Wonderful World of Amphibians (Part 2).”**
