My Project

Every day, I strive to teach not only the required curriculum but the real-world connections and data needed to fully explain these science subjects to artistically inclined students. My goal is not just to have my students excel in the classroom but to develop into knowledgeable citizens ready to make an influential impact on the world.

With the laboratory equipment of forces and momentum kit, we will be able to provide opportunities, multiple entry points and activities which can be completed by students at all different skill levels and learning styles.

In addition, we will be utilizing as interactive tools nearpod in all classrooms and laboratory rooms. Students tend to enjoy the active learning style and perform extremely well on assessments given to them. I will also be able to engage my students with multimedia experiences using the drawing tablet, speakers and microphones, which are extremely appealing to the social media generation. This opportunity given to my students will engage them mentally and physically throughout the year.
