About the store
I started out teaching alternative special education to 6th graders in 1997. In 1998, I wanted to teach science because it is my passion and moved to an alternative high school where I taught all sciences from grades 9-12 to people ages 16-22. When funding was no longer available and our school was shut down 6 years later, I moved to a junior high school in the area. Many of my former students said their hate for school started there and I wanted to be able to help them along instead of seeing them drop out...that was 8 years ago. I still work with at-risk students trying to help them value and desire an education and imparting them with knowledge that will help them become life long learners. I have training in many different areas and serve as a new teacher mentor, state assessor, and still to this day take classes to help me better my professional life. I have also been trained through the following programs: LASIP - 3 years LAgearup ABC Connections - 2 years Math Tips Intech - 2 years La State Assessor Trained LA State Mentor Trained

It came in very handy and I used it all of my middle school teaching years after. It may be a little too elementary for high schoolers, but could be a good review for them on the basics. I do not have a key with it but it is so basic tha

This is a lab report template I made for my 9th grade physical science class. I use this when I teach the scientific method and several other times to refresh their memory. I do not do this for every single lab and as we go on, they eventually make lab reports on their own based on what they have done on my format sheet. This file is in a picture format but when you print it portrait, it will work in class. If you want to change something on it, you will have to use a graphics altering progra

Included in this file is a set of 20 frog color pages that are made to be cut out. This would be great for use during an amphibian lesson, a spring bulletin board, a thematic unit, etc Each frog is different and could be fun to do in class with little ones.

Teaching style

I like my classroom to be a safe place where students can succeed and express themselves as they take home positive learning experiences. I am not a dictator in my class. I like to facilitate and let the children learn by doing.
