My Students

My students are varied in their background and beliefs. We are a Title 1 School with all of the students eligible for free breakfast and lunch.

This next year will be a new adventure for us I am creating an elective for the 7th grade students.

I want to teach about the history, the geography, and the geology of the state of Arizona. This year the 7th grade learned about rocks and the mountains that surround the great city of Tucson. So, next year I want to venture out to the entire state. I want to have a unique class that will get them interested in the world around them and interested in what is in their own back yard--Literally and figuratively.

My Project

I want to take the students outside to look at the world and magnify what they see in order to draw and explain the parts of each item. Learning how to draw what they see is important to understand the composition of the animal or plant.

Looking at in a magnified state and interviewing animals and plants can greatly enhance their knowledge of the world outside and allow them understand how all creatures contribute to life on earth.

The operation of ecosystems and ecology will be greatly enhanced with magnification.
