4학년 과학 - 진행 중

Each week in this on-going course students will view an interesting interactive presentation.  Many classes will include live and recorded demonstrations and optional in class experiments.  On weeks that we have experiments, I will perform the experiments on camera or step through a prerecorded video of myself performing the experiment.  The students have the option to perform the experiment at home along with me or observe me performing the experiment.  If students wish to participate at home, required supplies for each experiment will be provided at least a week in advance in the supply list below for this class. Most if not all optional experiments use simple household items. 

This on-going class is designed for someone who needs to complete a 4th grade science class as well as someone who is currently enrolled in a 4th grade Science class and wants additional help.

Each week will be an independent lesson.  The weeks do not build upon each other.  This will allow learners to pop in and out of the course as it suits their schedule.  However, I am available through the classroom and Outschool messenger anytime the learner may have a question.

This class will be fun and interactive we will learn through presentations, experimentation, and games.  

Learners will NOT be required to login to any website.  I do use Nearpod and Kahoot in my lessons.  Learners may need to click on a link but no login or accounts will be needed.  These sites are used to help make the class even more interactive and fun.  Throughout the lesson, the learner’s progress will be measured through interactive games, quizzes, and questions within the Nearpod presentation.  Learners will be responding on their own devices.

This course meets NGSS standards for 4th grade Science.
