In this one-time introduction course, learners will virtually travel to the planet’s most remote continent through photos and video from my personal collection.  We will learn:

- Where Antarctica is located and identify some of the continent’s main geographic features
- See photos and video of Antarctica’s most iconic wildlife species
- Enter a historic hut built by Robert Falcon Scott in 1902
- Walk through a modern-day science research station

Learners will label and color their own Antarctic continent, and finish class by making a craft with their work.
This is a teacher-led class and I use a mixture of storytelling based on my experiences with age-appropriate questioning techniques to draw out learner’s natural curiosity.  Curious learners also have great questions, and I have allocated time in class to answer questions about my experience of living and working at a science research station in Antarctica.

Please note: I also offer a similar course for learners aged 11-13.  We cover many of the same introductory topics about Antarctica and some of the same photos and videos may be used (a cute penguin is a cute penguin for all ages!), but teaching style and learner activities are different.
