Lifecycles and Food Webs

Lifecycles and Food Webs, starring King Levy the bearded dragon with special guests - The Mealworms!

Hold a bearded dragon! Watch him eat mealworms! Have a mealworm snack! Do bearded dragon exercises! Shed your skin!

Thursday, January 29

10:00 am to 12:00 pm

Aurora Central Library

Join Dr. D to learn about lifecycles and food webs. To illustrate, we’ll use King Levy, a real life bearded dragon, and live mealworms. Halfway through, we’ll take a snack break to eat “mealworms” (carrots and grapes). Throughout class, we’ll take exercise breaks to enact adaptive behaviors of bearded dragons (including shedding “skin”!). It will be an active and fun class, covering Common Core concepts. Grownups are welcome to join the class, sit in back and read/play with their phones, or wander the library. The class is ideal for 7 - 10 year olds, but all ages are welcome (and will have fun!). Learners with different cognitive and physical needs are always welcome and encouraged.

Learners should bring a water bottle and dress comfortably for crawling, jumping, running around, and generally being physical. No writing is necessary for this class!

Attend at your own risk! You will get to hold and pet the dragon. Bearded dragons rarely bite; King Levy has never bitten and handling will be closely supervised, however there is always a risk.

We kindly request a $20 donation per family to cover costs and facilitate future Homeschool with Dr. D classes. 

Limited spots are available, so register early!

Multiplication Boot Camp

Location and date of this class are as yet TBD. 

Learners will be taught how to use a multiplication table and receive a fun and colorful multiplication table to take home with them.

Tips and tricks (mental heuristics) will be taught for figuring out difficult numbers (ie 9's, 11's, 12's).

Memorization drills will be coupled with movement and song to engage deeper learning (and have more fun!)

Juice boxes and rainbow goldfish crackers will be served. Goldfish crackers are a great math learning tool!

Learners will be able to complete two digit multiplication by end of class, whether or not they have multiplication tables memorized.

If your learner can count to 100, they can multiply!

Recommended donation of $20 per family for this class.

Build a Catapult with Physics

Location and date of this class are as yet TBD. 

Projectiles used will be mini marshmallows, thus minimizing risk of injury. They will be closely supervised when launching projectiles. However, kids are creative in the ways they get hurt! Attend this class at your own risk.

All materials will be provided for your learner to build and take home a micropault!

Recommended donation of $20 per family for this class.
