Teaching gives me a chance to share that fascination with my students and encourage them to make the world a better place using the intelligence of nature. I’ve been a practicing teacher for over 20 years with a concentration in middle school science. There is so much joy in engaging middle school kids in the science process, and I am grateful that I have a career that both challenges my mind and is also incredibly rewarding.
I know what it is like to be overwhelmed with planning and have leaned on downloadable materials to save my sanity. Every teacher wants to have that awesome lesson, worksheet or lab but it is IMPOSSIBLE to do it all by yourself! Online downloads make bringing engaging lessons to the classroom a lot more achievable and in the end more students benefit.
Thanks for joining the Captivate Science community and because I know you don’t hear it enough, thanks for all that you do for your students and community.
