This course is four weeks long and each week we learn about different herpetology groups. 
Class 1/Week of 4/16/2023: Lizards 
Class 2/Week of 4/23/2023: Turtles and Tortoises and Snakes
Class 3/Week of 4/30/2023 Crocodiles 
Class 4/Week of 5/7/2023: Amphibians
For each of these groups, we will discuss the taxonomy, biology, anatomy, conservation, and distribution of the animal group overall. Additionally, we use specific animal species and live animals as examples to discuss these topics in-depth. 

I work professionally with reptiles in the zoo field and also work in animal conservation. I am a certified National Geographic Educator who has worked with reptile animal ambassadors for 8 years! 

숙제 제공
There is very minimal homework that is assigned. Each week students will be asked to research a reptile or amphibian from the group we discussed in the previous week and share what reptile they chose and why with the class. This will reinforce the learner's curiosity on the topic and also encourage them to explore the topic on their own terms outside of class. Homework is not graded, it is just an opportunity for learners to share their interests!
