This science class, ideal for ages 8 and up, includes live demonstrations and some follow-at-home experiments.  I also occasionally send out extra activities for students to try at home. My objective is to have fun with science and help students connect science to the natural and practical world around them. This curriculum introduces important concepts from several disciplines of science: earth science, biology, ecology, chemistry, and physics, as it covers BOTH sixth and seventh grade standards from the National Science and Engineering Education (SEEd) in one year.  While we do cover the standards, this class is not as rigorous (requires little to no writing or homework) or in depth as public school five-day-a-week classes, which makes it suited to a wider range of age groups and learning differences.
