In this class all about reptiles, we will explore some of the most unique and incredible reptiles found all around the world and use LIVE ANIMALS to demonstrate amazing characteristics about reptiles. 

Each session in this multiday class will focus on reptiles from a particular continent. We will discuss physical and behavioral adaptations of each species to learn how they survive in their particular habitat. We will also discuss life cycles, parent-offspring relationships, diet, and conservation issues of more than 15 species of reptiles! 

These classes will introduce students to a wide variety of life science vocabulary, including nocturnal, ectothermic, adaptations, arboreal, brumation, keratin, and many more! Each Reptile Rumble class will demonstrate our live animals (5-10 minutes) and include an interactive Google Slides presentation (20-30 minutes) with time for questions at the end. Students will be encouraged to work together to make hypotheses for a variety of prompts and are encouraged to ask questions. This is an on-going class that students can join for just a few classes or attend all!

Hi there!

My name is Sarah and I am so excited to explore wildlife, science, and conservation with your learner. I was born and raised in the Metroparks of Ohio, but I currently call the Sonoran Desert of Arizona my home. 

I have had a strong love for wildlife and nature for my whole life and have built my career around it. In 2017, I graduated cum laude from Arizona State University with a B.S. in Conservation Biology and Ecology. I am a Certified Environmental Educator in Arizona and a Certified Interpretive Guide through the National Association for Interpretation.

After college, I worked on several wildlife studies in the field studying species like the western diamondback rattlesnake, spectacled rattlesnakes, and Bahamian rock iguanas. I gained experience as an informal educator developing programs for schools and homeschool students at the Phoenix Zoo, Shedd Aquarium, South Mountain Environmental Education Center, and SeaLife Aquarium. 

At the start of COVID, I founded an organization that creates wildlife and conservation STEM resources for K-8 students, including a science curriculum program that teaches core science subjects with an engaging animal twist. 

My greatest objective as an educator is to make science FUN. My classes cover important science topics while using wildlife and nature as our driving forces.
