About the store
I've been teaching formally for 7 years now (informally for additional 3 years). I began teaching athletic training/sports medicine at the college level while I completed my teaching certificate in biology/science. Since then, I have taught health, freshman-level biology (credit recovery, co-taught special education, core, honors, and AP biology), chemistry (core level - both in English and in Spanish), physics (core and honors level), earth science (co-taught special education and core level - both in English and in Spanish), and biomechanics/sports medicine.

Hall/Bathroom Pass Sign in/out sheet

Boyd Science
This is a sheet that I have hanging from a clipboard by the door in my classroom. I placed a digital clock near it and have a pen tied to the clipboard. I then tell my students that they can leave as needed, just be sure to sign out. This helps cut down on the interruptions and gives the students a sense of autonomy. This can also be a nice little boost for you on the Danielson evaluation system.

All About You - Summer School

Created by
Boyd Science
I usually give this out on the first day of Summer School so that I can get to know the students better. I typically then follow it up with a multiple choice question quiz about myself. I make them guess the answer by looking at me and taking in clues from around the room. I then go over the answers with them and give them some insight as to who I am.

About the store

Experience

I've been teaching formally for 7 years now (informally for additional 3 years). I began teaching athletic training/sports medicine at the college level while I completed my teaching certificate in biology/science. Since then, I have taught health, freshman-level biology (credit recovery, co-taught special education, core, honors, and AP biology), chemistry (core level - both in English and in Spanish), physics (core and honors level), earth science (co-taught special education and core level - both in English and in Spanish), and biomechanics/sports medicine.

Teaching style

I am very hands-on. I try to use technology in different ways. I enjoy using powerpoint and often integrate a lot of vocabulary and quotes. I also enjoy doing demonstrations, labs, interjecting video clips, and having the students do group work (both small and large).
