Additional Science Classes 2018-19
NUTRITION
TUESDAYS
10:30 – 11:30
COST: Class duration 2 Semesters ~ $150 per semester
We study the function of each system and how our food choices influence wellness. This is a 2 semester course that covers all aspects of health including anatomy, biology, nutrition and chemistry. Each week there’s opportunity to sample food as a tangible way to experience nutrients. We learn the why’s of what to eat, not just the “because I said so”. My goal is to equip students to make the best choices for improved health and abundant living. This class satisfies the Ca state requirements for health.
Both male and female students 13 and older are encouraged to enroll.
TEXT: Nutrition 101: Choose Life! by Growing Healthy Homes. I have a limited number of books for $79 plus tax. This text is a
book that your family can use as a constant resource for improved health. It’s much more than a textbook.

Taught by Barnabas
WHY STEM?
As parents and educators, why should we care about Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (S.T.E.M.)? Science explores the physical world around us. Math explores the world through numbers and equations. Engineering uses math and science to solve real-world problems. Technology is the use of engineering to generate a good or service for the purpose of serving others. By combining S.T.E.M. education with the proper worldview, we are preparing our youth to develop products and services that can change the world.
