Landrum High School
Hometown:
Campobello SC
Class Information:
Room Number: 206
Students per Class: 125
Class Description:
Physical Science is an introductory course for 9th and 10 grades. My students are primarily freshman with sophomores mixed in. There are even a few 11th graders that have transferred in from other schools.
Position:
Teacher
Needs:
In order to continue to move my students into the 21st century, I must show them as many ways to use technology in science. Our students need to focus on STEM activities that will allow them to think out of the box. One way to do that is to invest in Vernier probeware that can allow the students to collect and interpret data in the science laboratory. This equipment along with Chromebooks can assist our students in becoming students of the 21st century.
