Teaching style
We work hard and use every single minute of every class period! I use many labs and hands-on activities that serve as casual formative assessments. We do lots of oral review in class and employ many models and memory devices to help ideas stick.

I love teaching about living things in all their beauty and complexity. Two of my biggest passions are encouraging girls in STEM education and inviting all students to SCIENCE and NATURE in general. All of the products you see on my site are student tested and revised and they DO work!
