I'm an Integrated Science teacher, and I've taught biology and physics for eleven years at the high school level. I've taught at a variety of levels from at-risk/special education to general education. I have also taught middle school general science along with high school earth science. In regards to training, I've attended multiple modeling and Next Generation Science workshops. I'm trained in Reading Apprenticeship, Making Thinking Visible, and Cultures of Thinking.

While my lessons may not always look fancy, they will get the job done. As a teacher, I try to have my students "do" science as much as possible. I also try to accommodate as many different learning styles as I can. The assignments and worksheets may not always look pretty, but they will help guide students in their production of high quality work, apply content using a variety of learning styles, get students moving and investigating science concepts, and promote discussion, reflection, and critical thinking. I also believe there is nothing wrong with good book work from time to time, so I have provided these types of assignments as well.

Please note that at the moment, I am slowly building my store. I may not have to this date all of the types of lessons I will be promising in my teaching style described above. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy the outdoors and outdoor activities. I also travel a lot during the summer. Many of my trips revolve around observing science related phenomenon such as extreme tidal bulges, the northern lights, and glaciers.
