Dimensional Analysis Practice
This worksheet will train students to work dimensional analysis (factor label method) conversions the same way every time. Students are required to fill in a chart that follows the steps to all conversion problems.
The first problem is worked for them as an example, and I use this sheet after I have lectured and worked problems with them. This is an excellent homework activity or for individual practice.

Teaching style
My teaching style includes a great deal of interaction with the students. I am a kinesthetic learner, so I enjoy creating, planning and implementing laboratory activities and investigations. I love for students to dive in and investigate a question they have. I try to incorporate technology when I can and I love to see my students actually EXPERIENCE science. My students utilize color and creativity to express what they are learning in their Interactive Science Notebooks. I change things every year and know that I have so much left to learn!
