*Students DO NOT need to take quarter classes in order* Structure of the Class: In my dynamic classroom, students dive into a myriad of learning experiences, from live debates and hands-on projects to intriguing educational escape rooms and enlightening lab sessions. But it doesn't stop there - we also incorporate games and direct instruction to ensure a well-rounded education. Each live session comes equipped with a set of slides and activity guidelines, readily accessible for students...

- Ask questions about data to determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces.
- Conduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact.
- Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system.
- Apply Newton’s Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving the motion of two colliding objects.
- Plan an investigation to provide evidence that the change in an object’s motion depends on the sum of the forces on the object and the mass of the object.
- Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object.
I have a masters in Earth Science science and I have taught integrated science at the middle school level as well as high school Biology, Wildlife Biology, and Zoology. During the last two years, I have worked as a Science Specialist for a large school district in Utah, supporting teachers and administration in science education.

Tareas
Frecuencia: 1-2 por semanaComentario: según sea necesarioDetalles: Students may be required to complete 20-30 minutes of assignments, reading, activities, etc. per each live lesson depending on the flow of the class.Evaluación
Frecuencia: 3-6 durante toda la claseDetalles: Assessments will be given as an indication of how well a student is learning the content and skills for the class and to help me continuously develop a better curriculum. Students will be assigned a number on a proficiency scale* that lets the student, parent, and teacher know how the student is doing. Each assignment will have a rubric attached to it letting the student, parent, and teacher know the expectations for the assessment. Assessments may be multiple choice, free response, modeling, or many other types. Most assessments will be taken in class, but some may be at-home projects. Assessment retakes and/or revisions will be provided and encouraged. *See Grading Policy for our Proficiency ScaleCalificación
Frecuencia: 1 después de finalizar la claseDetalles: Grades will be provided by default to all learners. If students do not want their student graded or to not have access to their grades, please let me know. Grades allow students, parents, and myself to understand where the student is at in their learning. Classwork will be graded using the outline below: 0 - The students understanding is incomplete, incorrect, or missing. 1 - The students understanding is complete and correct. Assessments will be graded using the outline below: 0 - The student demonstrates no evidence of learning. 1 - The student demonstrates a minimal understanding of the concept. 2 - The student demonstrates a partial understanding of the concept. 3 - The student demonstrates a complete understanding of the concept. 4 - The student demonstrates an understanding of the concept and can apply it to a new situation. Students will be able and encouraged to retake assessments and redo classwork throughout this class.
