About the store
I have been in education for over 30 years. I started out teaching science to elementary school level students and continued this for over 10 years. I moved to middle school science and have continued my career teaching a blended science program as well as high school physical science to 8th graders.
My career also includes mentoring new teachers, sharing best practices, leading groups of science teachers (as a department leader and as a professional learning committee leader), an academic science coach, and staff developer. I have a special interest in curriculum and instruction and was awarded my EdD in 2023.
I am excited to have this opportunity to share what has worked and what is currently working to help my students achieve and become life long critical thinkers.

pH Testing Lab Activity
This is a 3 page lab activity for testing pH of household substances. Page one is a blank pH scale where students need to write in the substances and their corresponding pH (based on testing). They also identify facts (characteristics) of acids and bases.
Page 2 has a color copy of Hydrion paper color changes for easy identification.
Page 3 is a test mat (that I suggest laminating for yearly use) that the students use to place their unknown substances and pH paper.

Teaching style
I believe students need to experience content and not memorize content. Students need to have experiences to build upon future experiences. The classroom should be a learning community where the students are active learners and teachers are coaching them, not instructing them. We experience life on a daily basis and that is what learning is about.
