Welcome to EASY Interactive Earth Science for younger kids. This is an easier version of my Intro to Earth Science Series for a 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 Autumn to Semseter 2 in Spring time. 

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 drawing and labelling a volcano. So this class style will have more time for discussion and student input.

▬▬▬▬▬▬  CLASS STYLE  ▬▬▬▬▬
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.

This class will be in a lecture style where students are reminded they can ask questions at any time and I do enjoy questions. This means that you can enjoy the class however you like - speak up and get involved and ask questions, or just listen and enjoy with no pressure.
