Studying the Earth, the rocks, the weather, it's oceans and stars....this is Earth Science! In this 15-week class for the fall semester, students will meet once a week and will also be expected to complete homework at home. This class will focus on five aspects of Earth Science including geology, astronomy, oceanography, meteorology, and environmental science. Simple equations as well as multiplication and division are used during some lessons. Students are allowed to use calculators if needed. Paper and pencil will need to be available for each class. After the first week, each class will begin with any questions the students have about the homework or material covered the week before. Then the new material for that week will be presented; slides, videos, pictures, and actual demonstrations or labs will be used throughout the course. Messages in the classroom will be utilized if students have any questions on homework throughout the week. Some homework assigned will be worksheets and others will be at-home experiments using household items. Please view the supply list for supplies. I will make sure to keep parents updated via classroom posts on what will be needed for the upcoming week. Homework assignments will be graded but grades are used at the parent's discretion. All work is optional and never mandatory. Please note, fewer numbers of students may result in a shortened class time. There will be no refunds issued for a student(s) missing class.
學習目標
Students will be able to explore through lecture, experiments, demonstrations, homework, and discussion the five fields of Earth Science....astronomy, geology, environmental science, meteorology, and oceanography.

碩士 由 Western Governors University
學士學位 在 科學 從 Missouri Southern State University
I was a middle school science teacher for 10 years. I have also homeschooled and graduated my daughter for 10 years and she is currently a sophomore in college. As a public school teacher, I taught Earth Science, Chemistry, Physical Science, Zoology, Biology, and more to hundreds of students. Science is a passion of mine and I find performing experiments both fascinating and illuminating when learning new scientific facts! In this class, students will have ample opportunity to perform their own experiments to reiterate the information they learn in class. I have my Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-Med and a Master's in Healthcare Administration.評論
