My Students
IHS is located in a suburb of Savannah, Georgia. We about 1,000 students enrolled. I have about 30 advanced students who will study environmental science and 90 students studying physics.
My students are eager to learn about the socio-scientific issues that environmental science encompasses, as well as conceptual physics.
The students I teach are between the ages of 14 and 18 years old. They are caring, kind, intelligent, curious, and compassionate. They want to conduct scientific investigations and understand the complicated, multifaceted problems in physics and environmental science. These young scientists want to explore, solve problems, think critically, collect and analyze data, and share their results. They will be future educators, tradesmen/women, engineers, doctors, lawyers, and politicians, and I want them to have the best learning experience possible.
My Project
Understanding the environment and how humans impact the environment is what students study in Environmental Science. This course should be required for all students and is possibly the most important class someone could take. We learn about water, air, and soil quality. My project includes a dissolved oxygen meter, as well as other water quality tests for water testing. Human activities have an impact on water quality and my students will study eutrophication, oxygen sag curves, the effect on water temperature and dissolved gases, the effect decomposition has on dissolved oxygen, and much more!
My project also includes classroom essentials that will make my classroom and learning more comfortable and convenient.
These essentials are items like tape, tissue, and bandaids.
More than half of students from low‑income households
