My Project

Have you ever been in a Middle School Science Class? By getting these materials, I am hoping to give students the opportunity to learn the material in their own way! Through comic books to flip books to workbooks, the students will be able to enjoy exploring Science through either reading about the material or interacting with the material actively. My future Scientists should experience a Science Class that is full of curiosity, amazement, and perseverance to try experiments! This way of learning will give my students a sense of ownership in their knowledge!
