My Students

I proudly teach a pre-school through eighth grade science lab. This year the lab will be focusing on health issues. Health science literacy is immeasurably valuable for personal decision making. We want our students to make healthy choices based on scientific knowledge.

My students range in ages from four to fourteen, attend an inclusive public elementary school, and are enthusiastic learners.

They love to be active and are motivated by hands-on activities and experiments. I see approximately five hundred students a week! We are large learning family.

My Project

These materials will be used to support and supplement the sexual health education curriculum. They will help provide students opportunities to independently read and learn about puberty, reproduction, and their rights and responsibilities as maturing adults. These books have been chosen to appeal to a variety of ages and student readiness.

These books will be an invaluable resource (that will be used again every year) that will help answer questions that were not raised, reinforce instruction, and help make our students comfortable in their changing skin!
