My name is Anabela Bentzinger and I am thrilled to be your science teacher this year. I genuinely appreciate all science, but especially love life science (biology), environmental science (conservation and sustainability), and physical science (chemistry and physics)!

I have two children, Autumn (10) and Avery (12), and live in Ringoes, NJ. We also have 2 cats (Milo and Macie), a dog (Shiloh), three hermit crabs (Shelley, Sherbert, and Shermit), and a betta fish (Fin).

All of these materials are important! We may not use all of them every single day, but we will use them often enough that coming to class unprepared will affect your performance and progress in science. Students will be adding to their science notebook throughout the year, and colored pencils, scissors, and glue are absolutely necessary! Calculators will be used often for lab calculations. You must come to class prepared will all materials to ensure nothing gets in the way of your learning! If you are unable to attain some of these items, please see me and I will do my best to help prepare you for science.
