D-N-Do the Science
This lesson has students exploring the scientific process within the scope of a chemist, a biologist, or a physicist. Borrowing from DnD's idea of character sheets and roleplay, each scientist gets their own sheet for you to laminate and handout. Using specific tools according to what scientist they choose, students will develop a hypothesis, follow procedures, and make conclusions based on data. This is a 5E lesson plan that uses a lot of materials from a class lab setup in addition to some pro

Experience
Previously, I have worked as a STEAM teacher for 6th through 8th grade for hearing students alongside being the curriculum developer at a local after-school programming center. Currently, I am a Deaf Ed inclusion teacher for science and ELAR.
Teaching style
In my classroom and when I modify or accommodate, I enjoy using hands-on strategies that encourage the students to physically work with the concepts I am trying to teach. This shows through in philosophies like project-based learning, constructivism, translanguaging, and many other strategies that help our Deaf students access the materials.
Awards & shining teacher moments
I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Flagler College and was gifted the Department Award for Excellence from the College of Education. Later, I was also requested to speak as a panel speaker for the Teaching Fellows of South Carolina on the topic of hearing impairments and common comorbidities of deaf students.
My own education history
I graduated from St. Johns River State College with an AA Degree and then transferred to Flagler College. There I graduated with a dual major in Education of the Deaf/Hard of Hearing and Elementary Education and a minor in Mathematics.
Additional biographical information
Currently working in Texas as an instructor for Deaf and hard of hearing students, I see it all! From students with no language learning American culture and appropriate science knowledge, to students with above grade level communication skills conducting independent experiments.
More importantly, I support my team by bringing in new techniques, technologies, and community engagement strategies that benefit the overall growth of our students here with diverse environments and topics.
