간단한 과학 실험: 실습 STEM 학습(진행 중인 과정)

Let's explore the world of science by completing Simple Science Experiments! Together learners will follow along with step-by-step instructions in which they will ask questions, test their hypothesis and make observations about their results. The purpose of this class is to help learners better understand science in a fun and hands on way!

Topics that will be covered will include concepts from physics, chemistry, and biology. We will learn about physics concepts like how air moves under pressure and about reflective light. Chemistry concepts like how ink can separate into different colors and how to make oobleck (a fan favorite) which acts as both a liquid and a solid. As well biology concepts such as what is living in the soil around your home and how to grow your own plants from dried seeds!

This is an on-going class so feel free to join in on any experiments that interest your learner! >>>>No prior knowledge is needed<<<< Learners will be responsible for coming to class with the prepared materials that are listed for that weeks experiment but feel free to email me with questions about substitute materials. During each session learners will follow along as I provide step-by-step instructions how to complete the experiment as well as a mini lesson on the science behind the experiment. This is an open mic class (as long as background noise is at a minimum) so that students are free to ask questions, answer questions and have discussions about the experiment without the need to constantly un-mute themselves. As a teacher I am a firm believer that students learn best when they are part of the conversation within the lesson and not just listening to a lecture.

*Note that due to the nature of this class, like students needing more help setting up an experiment or asking lots of questions (which is NOT a bad thing), some session may go over time by 5-10 minutes in order to complete the experiment or project. Please plan accordingly. I would not want you to have to rush through your experiment to go to another class.

All materials will be posted on our classroom page the weekend before class. Materials for this class include items you typically already have at home. Click link for a complete material list https://tinyurl.com/simplesciencemasteriallist
