Welcome to Sixth Grade!

I've always been a bulldog because I graduated from Big Spring High School.  My teaching career started when I graduated from Shippensburg University with a teaching degree in December of 2003. I went back to Shippensburg University and earned a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. 

Outside of school, I spend a lot of time with my family.  I am married and have two kids.  We enjoy camping, going to the beach, playing games, and going outside. I am very thankful for my family. 

I am the Gold team science teacher. Always remember Science is everywhere!  The units we study are Matter, Force and Motion, Energy, and Ecosystems. You will think like a scientist, create, carry out investigations, take measurements with scientific tools in class and gather data.  I teach science using the 5E model.  Please see the attachment for more information.  We use an online Pearson textbook and a wide variety of other online resources. Hope you come into class ready to learn with a positive attitude everyday.  With more knowledge, you can become a citizen that can change the world.  Never stop learning! Here is looking forward to a great year!
