About Origami Science
These courses consists of learning about our Earth and the amazing processes that make it what it is! Students will get to learn a variety of topics such as volcanoes, earthquakes, water cycle, carbon cycle, waterfalls, climate change and much more!
Combine the hands-on fun of origami with the wonder of learning about Earth science in this unique four-part group course. While making their own origami volcano models, students will learn about the external and internal structure of a volcano and will discuss the different types of volcanoes that exist. Students will go onto talk about famous volcanoes and how they have impacted the planet we live on. Lastly, students will learn about the environmental and ecological impacts of volcanic eruptions, and will further discuss how these eruptions have shaped many of the landforms we see today.

Each student who signs up for Origami Science: Volcanoes receives an Origami Science: Volcanoes Course Book that includes the following below!
Fun Volcano Facts & Trivia
You'll find on almost every page facts about volcanoes or a trivia question to challenge your knowledge about volcanoes to help you review what you learned during your classes!
Amazing Dynamic Photos
Throughout the entire workbook, you'll see amazing photos to go up close with these mighty mountains! With detailed pictures, your learning is supported visually to help review what you learned in class!
Fun Activities To Continue Learning
During and after your classes, you will get to review what you learned with a variety of fun activities including word searches, cut-and-paste projects, fill in the blank challenges, coloring pages, compare and contrast activities, and much more!
Engaging 3D Craft with Detailed Models
You'll find in this book all the parts needed to construct your 3D volcanoes to participate in this activity and learn about how volcanoes form and erupt. Along with the detailed origami parts, there will be additional written instructions of how to construct the craft as well as the QR code to access the resources page where you will find additional video instructions!
Students who sign up for this course will get access to video content and extra resources that they can use outside of class and in preparation for class!
Resources include:
Students will need to have these materials in order to participate:
How exactly do volcanoes form, and how long does it take? Why do some volcanoes erupt, while others do not? How many volcanoes exist on Earth? Are there volcanoes on other planets too? How do volcanic eruptions affect the world we live in? Why do volcanoes play such a vital role in the formation of landforms?
In this course, you and your classmates will get to dive deep into the world of volcanoes, including their role in shaping our planet, their ecological and environmental impact, and why it is vital to understand how they work.
Here is a breakdown of each of the lessons in this course!
Lesson 1: Intro to Volcanoes
The biggest volcano in our solar system isn't even on Earth! Find out what planet it is on, along with other interesting facts about volcanoes to kick off the course. Then, delve into some volcanic terminology along with where we can find all the amazing volcanoes on our own planet.
Lesson 2: Structure & Formation
In our second class, we will learn about the components that make up the internal and external structure of a volcano. Then, we'll jump into plate tectonics and how these enormous plates below our feet move to cause volcano formation. Did you know there are volcanoes under water too? We'll explore how those come to exist as well!
Lesson 3: Types of Volcanoes
Not all volcanoes are the same! They come in different shapes, sizes, and compositions. In this class, we'll learn all about the different types of volcanoes and how they come to exist. We'll also explore how the volcano type impacts its eruption style, all while building a model of each type.
Lesson 4: Impact & Importance
We’re not done yet! For our last class, we’ll explore how volcanoes have shaped our world and we'll also dive into history and look at some of the most famous volcanoes on our planet. Did you know that the loudest sound ever recorded came from the eruption of a volcano? Find out which one it was and more during our last instalment of this course.

We are planning to release these following courses throughout the year.
Triassic World
|
Dinosaurs - Paleontology - History Students will travel back in time 252 million years ago to explore the rise of the dinosaurs during the Triassic period, focusing on the recovery and diversification of life following the world’s most notable mass-extinction event. |
Earthquakes
|
Seismology - Plate Tectonics - Natural Disaster Students will learn not only about tectonic plates and how they move, but also about how these plates cause catastrophic earthquakes around the world. |
Cells
|
Structure - Organelles - Physiology Students will learn about the structure, morphology and internal composition of animal, plant, bacterial and fungal cells with a focus on what makes each cell types distinct. |
