Welcome to EASY Interactive Earth Science for younger kids. This is an easier version of my more advanced Intro to Earth Science Series. This course is beginners level and more interactive introduction to this amazing subject. Weekly classes cover the full Earth Science curriculum covering different, but related, topics from Semester 1 in Aug/Sept to Semseter 2 in January. I will also have some Semester 1 classes starting in January. I am very happy to facilitate moving between my Intro and Easy classes and to offer refunds if the class is the wrong level for your student. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ CLASS STYLE ▬▬▬▬▬ I will introduce each topic in a Lecture style format using PowerPoint and images and videos where appropriate. Then we will pause to do an interactive task together like labelling a volcano. So this class style will have more time for discussion and student input. I use PowerPoint presentations for all my classes, so I can mix text and multimedia (photos & videos) which I think makes the class more accessible and interesting. I use educational videos regularly in my classes where this improves the quality of the teaching. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ COMMUNICATIONS ▬▬▬▬▬ Please contact me to arrange either one-off or ongoing bespoke 1-to1 tuition sessions. I generally reply within a few hours during term time weekdays. I try and reply within one working day. Please bear in mind I am on UK time, so at least 5 to 8 hours ahead of the USA. If you try my class and it is not quite right, then I don't want anyone to leave unhappy, please contact me and I can help. Just contact me if you have any further questions, I am happy to help.

Lección 2:
2) Geology 1: Minerals, Mining, Gems & Precious Metals
In this class we analyse the definition of a mineral and examine why some minerals are not gems and some gems are not minerals. We then look at precious metals and study why they are so rare and how we find and mine them.

Orientación para padres
Some classes talks about Global Warming and Climate Change causing more frequent natural disasters. It also talks about mass extinctions including the possibility of humans causing one now (including ourselves) and has some drawn images of animals dying to become fossils. It is delivered in a upbeat manner with positive solutions (eg: switching to renewable energy), but the more sensitive students may find these topics distressing.
