Class Description:

Position:
science teacher

We need: One video projector One video camera One tripod
My Philosophy:
Children learn first by seeing, then by doing. Any help they can get through seeing something performed before them, will help them to perform it themselves and develop an understanding in how their world works. Many of our students do not have access to the opportunity to get connected to the world opf science outside of school. Even then, their access is limited by the amount of computers available to them. Our desire is to allow many students to view the content from the web at the same time, allowing them to interact with both the material and each other.

Why Do I Teach?:
What could be more inspiring than watching the "Great Aha!" light come on in a young persons mind. They are a never-ending source of enjoyment as they grow in knowledge and confidence. My goal is to show them that there is an interconnectednessin all things and more than one reason to why things operate and behave as they do. Putting students in touch with their world is my passion.
