About the store
I am a fifth year science teacher with experience in biology, chemistry, physics, and marine biology. This year, I am teaching Chemistry in the Earth System and Marine Science with CTE credit.
Prior to coming to the PNW, I taught in Palo Alto, CA and Naperville, IL.
Currently, I am involved in my school district Science Advisory putting together resources, learning objectives, and unit outlines to be utilized across the district. Additionally, I work at my district and school site to create social emotional learning resources and trainings for my school.

Bond Energy Inquiry - Guided Notes and Practice
This is a four part self-paced inquiry in which students calculate the energy of reaction for the combustion of ethanol. Students are introduced to bond dissociation energies in order to calculate the required energy to break bonds, released energy to form bonds, and the total energy of the system to determine if the reaction as a whole is exothermic or endothermic. This lesson can be complete individually, in small groups, in the classroom, or at home with the intention that the scaffolding all

Homeostasis Ice Experiment
In this high school biology experiment students will investigate how our bodies maintain homeostasis in the attempt to resist change by both combating stressors and eventually moving into survival mode for the protection of vital organs. Students can complete this lab in the classroom or in a virtual classroom from home. Students will hypothesis on how bodies react to hypothermia, collect data, evaluate evidence, draw conclusions and use research to solidify understanding. This activity can be

Exercise and Cellular Respiration Lab - REMOTE OR IN-PERSON LAB EXPERIENCE
In this high school biology experiment students will investigate how our bodies heart rate and breathing rate change based on the need for cellular respiration to take place. In the lab students will track their breathing and heart rate after different lengths of time spent exercising. By sharing class data, students will be able to graphically analyze the class data to build these connections. This is a great introductory activity for students to track the cycling of carbon through Earth’s Sphe

Ice Cube and Specific Heat Lab
This lab can be completed in virtual learning from the comfort of student’s homes with materials that students have in their own home or in an in class setting with a variety of materials in the classroom. Students will explore the transfer of energy of different room temperature objects to an ice cube. They will explore which types of materials melt and cut ice cubes most easily and provide reasoning behind the variance in thermal transfer by learning about specific heat. Students will think cr

Periodic Table Exploration
This three part exploration is an introduction of the periodic table that high school chemistry students can work through on their own, with a partner, or with a group, in class, at home, or online. The self-paced lesson familiarizes students with the periodic table and its organization by reading the history of the table, locating different elements on the periodic table, grouping unknown elements based on their properties, and identifying properties of common elements. This product can easily

Mole Conversions - Guided Practice
This is a self-paced four part inquiry introduction lesson to mole conversions in which students write and use conversion factors to cancel different units. Students will practice identifying the starting and ending units of a problem in order to identify the conversion factor and the orientation factor before beginning to solve different problems. This inquiry activity provides short notes throughout the lesson for students as they work along through the lesson and scaffolded equation templates

Teaching style
My teaching style focuses on connecting students to the world around them with inquiry based learning. Straying away from direct instruction, I hope to help guide students in exploration to come to their own understanding of the materials.
My own education history
I have a BS of Chemistry Education with an endorsement in Biology and Physics and a MA in Earth Science Education.
Additional biographical information
My Chemistry and Biology sources incorporate Earth Science topics and/or Relateable Phenomena as a way to connect students to the world around them.
I suggest looking at my Year Long Standards Outline for both my Chemistry and Biology courses to see how I mix and match Earth Science NGSS with my two core classes.
