My Students

Nothing brings a smile to my face like the sound of amazing discussions from my students. Students enjoy collaborating with classmates for special projects and classroom activities. They always look for a place to add their individual creativity. This year, we are specifically molding the students to think more like scientists and engineers by helping them develop models aimed at explaining scientific ideas and possible solutions for problems.

As soon as students enter my science classroom, they are greeted by the door with a handshake and a smile.

My school is a Title One school consisting of students who come from economically disadvantaged households. Despite this obvious setback, together we have developed a positive science classroom that focuses on learning, collaboration and hard work. We make a collective effort to embrace all cultures (Caribbean, Latin American, Russian, etc) so that students feel comfortable sharing their ideas.

My Project

Imagine a classroom where after learning about biotic and abiotic factors, you get to paint your preferred biome on an empty canvas. Or, maybe you get to build an ecosystem from clay to depict the relationships between biotic and abiotic factors. Students are always looking for ways to express themselves.

This project provides my students with the opportunity to apply their new knowledge in artistic ways.

For example, students will be able to draw and color models of a plant cell and animal cell. Students make better sense of the content. This inadvertently helps students gain confidence in their creations and gives them a chance to be seen and heard. Science should always be fun and engaging! What better way to achieve this than to bring more art into our science classroom?
