About Course

  • Join me, Bonnye, as we inspect and dissect a cray fish together! I’ve been a lifelong learner, a marine biologist, a home school mom, and a science teacher. I love science, and I love the excitement of curiosity it brings to our students!
  • We will open a Kahoot! game.
  • If you can, please have that game downloaded to a phone or the same device as you open this up on… this will allow you to easily be able to access and play along with us to open our discussion.
  • Also, download and print, or have available the attachment in your Resources section.
  • You will find the Zoom link in the Announcements Section when you are enrolled. 
  • Your learner can simply attend the course
  • If you choose, you can also have a preserved worm from a science website (we like homeschooltools.com) with various dissection equipment that you can source from a thrifty store such as the Dollar Tree, your kitchen or bathroom, or follow along and have none of the science items!
  • Your learner will love the thrill of discovery for as much, or as little, as you are able and willing to provide.
  • Please have your student in a place to be able to respond with the microphone feature on Zoom, and if all possible to have them enable their video on screen so we can interact appropriately together. Parents are encouraged to follow along and watch always! This course is way more fun if the students are involved and this one is appropriate for them to be on screen and available by audio as well.
