My Students

Our classroom motto is "Stay Curious". Our biology classroom can constantly be found abuzz with questions and discussions, "Why" and "How" are used in all aspects of inquiry and encouraged beyond the science department.

Our school community fosters this curiosity within each of our students, placing a strong emphasis in the arts and sciences, which creates an incredibly unique student body.

Any and all students are able to attend our school, which is application-based but lottery-drawn. Due to this application process, our students are from all districts and demographics within the area. This diversity allows for classroom dynamics that encourage peer-learning, skill-building, reflection upon personal ideas and experiences, as well as facilitating an appreciation of differences and commonalities.

In our biology classroom, students may be using a microscope for the first time or finely developing their electrophoresis skills. We approach the living world through many facets which emphasize relating previous experiences toward a greater depth of knowledge. By encouraging my students to develop their own understanding of their cellular, genetic and ecological processes, they are able to make informed decisions that affect our local and global community.

My Project

I am requesting real coyote, dog, jackal, and red fox skulls to study in our classroom. These skulls will allow students to engage in the analytical processes employed by fossil researchers. Students will use observations to determine basic characteristics such as size and diet. Throughout our unit on biological diversity and unity students review and analyze different types of data demonstrating the importance of structure and function as well as biological similarities among organisms.

By making inferences based on skull shape, eye socket positions, teeth shape and variety students will strengthen their understanding of the natural world as well as develop their observation skills and curiosity.

These diverse skulls would provide an extraordinary hands-on experience for students to connect several important themes throughout Biology and would also allow for greater discussion of how organisms change over time in relation to their environment.
