In this class kids will learn about a new animal each week! Some weeks everyone will get a coloring page to fill out in class. Students will be encouraged to ask questions in class as they learn new information because they will learn not only all about new animals, but also have hands-on experience learning how to care for animals including: how to feed, hold, and clean up after the critters. Animals will be handled in this class. If a student is being disrespectful or not paying attention to the animal safety rules, they will not be allowed to handle the animal that that week.
Does your child love animals? Do they have some particularly beloved animals? Do they enjoy telling you all about their favorite critters?
In this class students will have a platform to share about their choice creature. Every student will have one or two class days when they can play teacher and present a report on one of their favorite animals.
As a class we will explore classification in the animal kingdom, habitats, ecosystems, food chain, “-vore“ classification, specialized adaptations and individual biology. We will be using fun engaging games and materials to support the extended in class learning on these subjects as they pertain to that day’s critter.
Each student will be responsible for 1-2 age/grade level animal “reports” completed at home with guided questions/format and presented in class.
I will teach the basic stitches used in crochet and how to combine them to make items such as: plushies, bags, hats, scarves, etc. After learning the basics, students will choose what items they would like to create.
