My Students

My students are high achievers who love to engage in discussion about science and the connections to the real world. We are located on the south side of Chicago and engaging with the environment is not always easy.

My students love to ask questions and often ask insightful ones that require some research outside of our curriculum.

They love to engage with technology, posting to our Google Classroom page, creating innovative digital products, and finding ways to research and explain their ideas.

They yearn to learn more and expand their worldview. Experiencing natural and built environments outside of our urban neighborhoods allows them to see new opportunities, problems, solutions, and careers!

My Project

It seems increasingly likely that my students will begin the 2nd semester at home. I am hoping to make lab kits to provide to them to do labs, we will use these remote or if we end up coming back for a hybrid schedule.

2nd Semester I will have a new group of Biology students, I would love for them to be able to do hands on labs.

My school opted to use a semester schedule this year, so students didn't have to focus on as many classes at once. I am improving on the lab kits I made my 1st semester students!
