About the store
We are both teachers of 14 years. The items we post to our store come from our own classrooms, so we know how important high-quality lessons are to you and your students. Thank you for the opportunity to bring our lessons into your classroom.
We have experience in all grades of high school and middle school. We also have vast experiences from previous adventures in elementary school. We are both special education teachers, with certifications in High School Math, Science and English, and have worked in nearly all subject areas with a variety of students.
Since we both teach in different areas our store has a wide array of lessons. You will find many math and english lessons. Denae' has been teaching life skills, work experience, english and social studies classes. During the past few years Patrick has been focused primarily in math including; Algebra 1, Algebra 2 and Physics. Therefore, we have some unique lessons that would be difficult to find elsewhere.

Gummy Bear Experiment
My students absolutely loved this lesson and learned so much in the process! This experiment is designed to compare what happens to gummy bears when left in 4 different solutions for 48 hours. The experiment was designed to highlight the teaching of the scientific method but can certainly be adapted for other concepts. A matching activity of the scientific method is also included. This lesson would be great with a daily skills high school class, middle school science or any elementary science

We hope you enjoy this great experiment to teach p
