My classroom fosters a fun and engaging learning environment where students are motivated to succeed through hands-on activities. By the end of the year, I hope my students will strengthen their critical analysis skills and reach past their limits.
My students are curious, ambitious, and anxious to learn.
They are always searching for ways to get involved inside and outside the classroom. The school provides an encouraging atmosphere that targets each student's goals for success and truly allows everyone to feel comfortable asking questions and participating in group discussions.
Our school is in an urban environment with a high percentage of low-socioeconomic households. Despite these challenges, our students still come to class everyday eager to learn. The more experiences they can have with hands on activities, the more they will engage in science and become active participants in their learning and understanding of science.
My Project
Students learn about human anatomy and physiology at the end of their seventh grade year. This is the most exciting part of the currciulum because they get to actually learn about what makes up their bodies.
There is no better way to learn about anatomy than to dissect organs and other animals!
Students will get to feel like a surgeon when they cut into the hearts, brains and frogs I am requesting for purchase. They will also be able to monitor their heart rate at rest and during exercise so they can understand how their heart actually works. I cannot wait to give the students a healthcare-related experience in my classroom.
