*Students DO NOT need to take quarter classes in order* Structure of the Class: In my dynamic classroom, students dive into a myriad of learning experiences, from live debates and hands-on projects to intriguing educational escape rooms and enlightening lab sessions. But it doesn't stop there - we also incorporate games and direct instruction to ensure a well-rounded education. Each live session comes equipped with a set of slides and activity guidelines, readily accessible for students...

- Use a model to illustrate how photosynthesis transforms light energy into stored chemical energy.
- Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for how carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen from sugar molecules may combine with other elements to form amino acids and/or other large carbon-based molecules.
- Use mathematical and/or computational representations to support explanations of factors that affect carrying capacity of ecosystems at different scales.
- Use mathematical representations to support and revise explanations based on evidence about factors affecting biodiversity and populations in ecosystems of different scales.
- Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning that the complex interactions in ecosystems maintain relatively consistent numbers and types of organisms in stable conditions, but changing conditions may result in a new ecosystem.
- Design, evaluate, and refine a solution for reducing the impacts of human activities on the environment and biodiversity.
- Evaluate the evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species’ chances to survive and reproduce.
- Create a computational simulation to illustrate the relationships among management of natural resources, the sustainability of human populations, and biodiversity.
I have a masters in Earth Science science and I have taught integrated science at the middle school level as well as high school Biology, Wildlife Biology, and Zoology. During the last two years, I have worked as a Science Specialist for a large school district in Utah, supporting teachers and administration in science education.

Tareas
Frecuencia: 1-2 por semanaComentario: según sea necesarioDetalles: Students may be required to complete 30-60 minutes of assignments, reading, activities, etc. per week depending on the flow of the class.Calificación
Frecuencia: 1-2 durante toda la claseDetalles: Assessments will be given as an indication of how well a student is learning the content and skills for the class and to help me continuously develop a better curriculum. Students will be assigned a number on a proficiency scale* that lets the student, parent, and teacher know how the student is doing. Each assignment will have a rubric attached to it letting the student, parent, and teacher know the expectations for the assessment. Assessments may be multiple choice, free response, modeling, or many other types. Most assessments will be taken in class, but some may be at-home projects. Assessment retakes and/or revisions will be provided and encouraged. *See Grading Policy for our Proficiency Scale
