My Project

Our world is full of science from the moment you move your feet. From the kitchen to the oceans, science fills our world with wonder and awe.

From tornado simulators to volcano creations, this project puts science into the hands of my students!

We will learn about the scientific method and then move to putting it into practice. Let's face it, we have to promote scientific thinkers who will be our next generation of doctors and ground breaking researchers. With daily cuts to funding for the scientific community, our students need to ask important questions and challenge the status quo through investigative thinking, exploring, collecting data, and drawing conclusions.
