My Project

My 2nd period Biology class is an active and engaging learning environment where students explore scientific concepts through hands-on activities and collaborative discussions. We've studied genetics, ecology, and cell structures, using interactive lessons to deepen understanding. To support their learning, I’m requesting essential classroom supplies, including pencils, notecards, and an organizational system to help students stay prepared and engaged. Additionally, owl pellets will provide a hands-on dissection experience, reinforcing our studies on food webs and ecosystems. As they prepare for the Maryland State Integrated Science Assessment (MISA), snacks will help keep them focused and energized during this important test. These resources will enhance learning and set my students up for success.
