Description: We will explore simple machines (inclined planes, levers, pulleys, gears) with K'NEX, and physics with Real Science 4 Kids and Critical Thinking first semester. Second semester we will explore astronomy with Apologia. Since children learn best by doing, around half of the class time each week will incorporate hands-on experiments and activities. The focus here is to make science fun and hands-on. Note: This class spans 2 grade levels. Students will have new content each year. Tutor: Laura Kirkwold has a B.S. in biochemistry from the University of Minnesota College of Biological Sciences. After graduation she worked in the research lab at the University of Minnesota Dental School. She has four graduated and working young adults. She has been teaching at CHAT since 2007.
