Welcome to Mrs Kolstedt's Science Class

I am pleased to welcome you to my classroom. Just a little about me, I have a Bachelors in Education: Biological Studies and a Masters of Education: K-12 Science. I enjoy being outdoors, hiking and just relaxing with a good book.

This year in science your child will be studying a range of topics. We will start off with the basics of science experimentation and lab techniques. We will then move on to chemistry, studying chemical properties and changes. Next, we will cover topics in the field of biology, focusing on cell processes, heredity, and natural selection. Lastly, we will cover concepts in the field of physics, learning about Newton's 3 laws of motion and their real world applications.

I have high expectations of your child performance in this class. I expect your child to come to class with a positive attitude and prepared to work on a daily basis. In return, I will provide hands on, engaging lessons that challenge your child. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me at (602) 896- 5500 or via email at dena.kolstedt@wesdschools.org.

I’m looking forward to another successful year.
