About The Teacher

I am the 7th and 8th Grade Science Teacher at the Minneapolis Jr. Sr. High 
School.  I also coach Jr. High Science Olympiad.  Sadie is a nationally 
licensed therapy dog who I have had the privelege of being the caretaker for 
as the MJSHS school therapy dog for 3 years. Sadie enjoyed her time working 
with students at MJSHS, but no longer works at the school.

I believe science is important not only in the develpment of a strong 
educational background, but also in helping students understand the 
importance of taking responsibility for their learning and becoming lifelong 
learners.  My goal is to have science come to life for my students and 
enable them to develop basic science concepts and understand everday 
application of these concepts by providing a hands on curriculum including 
the use of labs, individual and group projects, and the integration of 
technology.

Mission For The Class

Provide opportunities for students to develop an understanding of science 
concepts by experiencing their application to the real world through the use 
of hands on activities, research, lab work, projects, and technology.
