Hello! Without starting too many explosions, our Thinking Science class focuses on chemistry, physics, earth science and using the scientific method to explore and interact in these varied fields of study. I teach mostly freshmen eagerly and awkwardly entering high school with some upper classmen, who were not as successful as 9th graders, sprinkled in for remediation. This is my 11th year teaching and I love working with this age group! Never a dull moment working with teenagers! My goal 100% of the time is to have students leave our classroom loving science and to grow into curious adults always asking 'why and what's next?' Thank you for your interest in what we are doing and I look forward to working with you!
