Generation Genius の K-2 年生向け科学キャンプ。K-8 年生の認定教師が指導します。

What will be taught?
What topics will you cover?

We will be learning about a different topic each day for 1 week.
I will be using the Generation Genius's website's materials that I've paid for for classroom use and have their permission to use. 

Each day we will talk about these science topics:  
1) Introduction to Sound

2) Introduction to Weather

3) Introduction to Traits

4) Simple Machines

5) What is Engineering?  

Depending on the popularity of this class, I may add additional weeks with more science topics!


How is your class structured?
The class time will include the following:

1) Welcome everyone and introduce ourselves
2) Ice breaker/just for fun question and check in to see how everyone is doing, (maybe someone wants to share something about their their day or something they are looking forward to.)  
3) Before video discussion questions related to that day's science topic
4) Watch the 10-12 minutes video together from Generation Genius
5) After Video discussion questions

(+ depending on the amount of class time left, I will go over vocabulary, reading material, and worksheet)

How will you teach?

I'll read the discussion questions and give learners time to think and share their ideas before reading the provided answer from the Generation Genius website.

What's your teaching style?
I like teaching where I say information or ask questions and encourage students to say their ideas. I like a conversation style of teaching where I can also learn from the learners ideas or compliment their ideas etc. I may not have thought about in addition to sharing my ideas. I care and show interest in what learners have to say about the topic.

**Students do not need to have any previous science knowledge.  I'll be speaking in English but comfortable with ESL students or students with special needs since I have an ESL certificate as well as an ESL endorsement and General Ed endorsement, etc. so everyone is welcome!   I look forward to making this class fun and meaningful for your learners!
