Are your children ready for engaging, inquiry based, hands-on science lessons? Then this is the class for you. My aim is to reintroduce the mystery, the curiosity, and creative problem solving to science class.
 
Every scientific fact taught in schools started out as a mystery that someone noticed and was curious enough to explore. We will go back to the beginning and recreate the problem that led to that discovery, so that the student can build appreciation for why science is so cool.
 
Scientific concepts that will be covered this year include:
Ecosystem Design & Modeling
Human Body, Senses, & the Brain
Water Cycle & Earth's Systems
Sun, Moon, Stars, & Planets
Sound, Waves, & Communication
Forensic Science
Plants, Habitats, and Ecology
Dinosaurs, Extinction, Wildlife Conservation
Weather and Climate
