Teaching Philosophy:

My students to be positive citizens that are able critically think and collaborate well with others. While students are able to take the most from their educational experience and apply it to their daily lives today and in the future.

I want my students to become critical thinkers with the skills to explore and solve problems that exist in the world around them. The world of science is full of opportunities for students to question and solve problems in innovative ways. Students should be active in their learning and able to apply content from multiple subjects. Students will have the opportunity to share, listen, and build from ideas from their peers. Respecting one another and staying open minded will help students think of solutions as a group and establish communication skills. The teachers job in the classroom is to help guide students through activities, research, and serve as a facilitator. Along the way I will be the cheerleader for my students at whatever they are faced with. Therefore, creating a supportive and engaging atmosphere for all the students in my class, and helping them become lifelong learners.
