I will be teaching approximately 100 7th grade scientists at a low income, high poverty public middle school in Oakland, Alameda, CA. They come from a plethora of different backgrounds and have different learning styles and experiences. I want my science students to really connect the material that they learn in class to their general lives! My students are some of the most hard working and determined people I know, and they deserve to have a technologically relevant education.
