I have had an amazing opportunity as a new teacher to take this forensic science class and develop my own curriculum. The subject matter lends itself to a vast assortment of students ranging from 10th to 12th grade with many different levels of science experience. Forensic science has proven to be common ground for students of all socio-economic, ethnic, and social strata. All of the students who come through my door are those who are looking for a different kind of science class; whether it is because they have not done well with more traditional subject matter, or they have enjoyed all of the other science opportunities and are looking for something new. I am privileged to have the opportunity to create lessons that are interesting to all and inspire those who are otherwise disinterested in science.
