About the store
I have taught high school science for over ten years, from Chemistry and Ecology to AP Physics, Anatomy, and Aviation, with earlier college-level teaching in General and Organic Chemistry as a graduate teaching assistant and adjunct professor. I currently lead a high school aviation program, teaching aviation ground school and running hands-on aircraft and drone build projects.
I am an active student pilot, and I lead aviation ground school for Private Pilot and Remote Pilot (Part 107). These resources are co-developed with my husband, a Certificated Flight Instructor (CFI) of more than 15 years and an FAA-certificated Remote Pilot (Part 107). We build and refine the resources together.

All About Me - Science Student Edition
This All About Me (Science Edition) is an activity I do at the start of every year, and it's an excellent way to get to know your new science students. I love reading through the responses, and gaining really neat insight on my new students. ***Teacher Tips***I like to bring in current science events into my classroom, so I make notes of what science topics students write on this sheet. I will often revisit them halfway through the year, once we're more established, to see what I may have mis

Scientific Method Exploration Activity & Worksheet
The Scientific Method is often taught as a flowchart procedure of steps. However, in research this is not how it actually occurs! This activity challenges students to think outside of that flowchart, and to realize that scientific discovery can take place in a number of different steps, which ultimately build to be inclusive of all the steps. The activity uses a Tangram puzzle that make three different squares (small, medium, and large), and as students build each square there are engagement
