This course explores over 60 Pokémon and their origins in Japanese mythology and culture. Students will learn about cultural traditions that have inspired Pokémon, and a plethora of Japanese of myths and legends that are the basis for many popular Pokémon. While the focus of this class will be the culture/mythology of Japan, it is through the lens of the Pokémon world, and thus is not a comprehensive review of the entirety of Japanese culture, folklore, or mythology. This is a self-paced course. Each lesson contains one recording (each about 40-50 minutes long) plus extension activities to expand your learning beyond the recording. All extension activities are optional and at the discretion of the parent. Need a discount? Sure thing! All of my flex courses are "pay what you can afford." To get the discount you need, sign up for the course first, then message me with the discount you would like, and I will apply a partial refund. This must be done before the end of the first week of class.

Orientación para padres
Not recommended for sensitive souls! Some of these Japanese monsters are quite creepy. There are some stories with death, destruction, and one mention of suicide.

From 2005 to 2021 I was a highly certified teacher in Arizona, in Science, Language Arts, and Social Studies. (I allowed my teaching license to lapse after becoming employed by the University of Arizona.) I have a Bachelor of Science in Earth and Space Science Education. I have four children ranging from 9 to 14 years of age. Besides teaching on Outschool, I am an advisor and educational outreach coordinator at the University of Arizona, and I also run my own small business giving astronomy shows in an inflatable planetarium for libraries and schools. In my spare time, I like to hike with my family, go on road trips, and volunteer with the Crisis Text Line (an organization that helps at-risk teens and young adults work through difficult situations).
