Hello, my name is Mrs. France. I am married and have 3 children-- ages 18, 16 and 13. I have been teaching for over 20 years. However, this is my fourth year at Tyee. This year I'm teaching Chemistry and Physics. I first became interested in science in 3rd grade when my teacher dazzled us with cool experiments that changed colors, fizzed and popped. Now, I get to teach students to be observers of the phenomenons around them and then use science to explain why and how they are occurring. I'm excited to help you on your scientific journey.
