Biology Back to School Night

Hello Parents and welcome to back to school night.

To help you get acquainted with our biology course, I made a video for you. In this video you will see how the course is organized and get familiar with schoology.

Now that you know a little more about our biology class, you have an assignment, should you choose to accept it.

Every little kid loves science until they have a science teacher. I believe that science classes can ruin science for students. It is my life goal to make sure the excitement and curiosity children naturally have for science flourishes into adulthood. In my course, your child will be encouraged to question everything around them. They will be encouraged to rediscover the magic in science.

I teach biology using real world relevance. Explaining complex biological phenomena using everyday scenarios a high school student can relate to.

I look forward to meeting you at back to school night and answering any questions you might have.

If you would like to know more about my philosophical views on grading, homework, and assessments, feel free to watch any of these videos where I explain why I do what I do. Thank you
