Teaching style

My classroom is built on movement, conversation, and curiosity. I want students asking questions, experimenting, and discovering ideas for themselves. I keep learning fresh by mixing short instructional moments with hands-on investigations, teamwork, and going outside as often as possible to explore how science connects to the world around us.
