My Students

I teach science at a public charter school that serves a very alternative student population. Relationships with kids is the essence of what allows our students to find success, sometimes after being unsuccessful at 2 or 3 other schools. I work hard to help kids make meaningful real-world connections to the science content their required to master.

My Project

Because some students will be in class full time or part time, but some will be working completely from home, I need to have creative ways for them to all access my curriculum and still do hands-on exploration of Chemistry and Human Anatomy. I am ramping up my digital presentation this year, and developing several “play anywhere” learning games or “do anywhere” assignments. I also plan to make literary connections to real-life science by exploring some novels that involve the areas of science that I teach.

I hope that students won’t feel cheated out of what they’d usually get because they’ve chosen a different way to learn this year.

I have asked for cardstock and binding combs so that I can construct a "workbook" containing all of the materials they'll need throughout the semester. This will allow students working from home to have access to the same materials that in-seat students have. Additionally, if we end up with some type of stay-at-home order again, we'll be able to move on with our learning since all students will have the materials they'll need.

I have also asked for some electronic equipment that will help me present better to students no matter where they are learning, as I will be doing a fair bit of screencasting to teach essential skills.

Finally, I've asked for several resource books that I plan to use to branch away from the traditional textbook only type courses I teach and make some better real-life connections for students.
