Creekview High School
Class Information:
Room Number: 2307
Students per Class: 98
Class Description:
I currently teach 4 different subjects. I have 11th and 12th graders taking AP Biology, 9th graders taking Honors Biology, 10th graders taking Low level Chemistry and Team Taught Special Needs Physical Science.
Position:
Science Department Chair
Needs:
I am in desperate need of AV equipment (at least 6 cameras) to help animate difficult processes for the student to learn. I love the FLIP video cameras because they are extremely user friendly for student of all abilities. I would like to also have tripods so that the students could use the cameras to do things like claymations of mitosis or animate the process in photosynthesis.
My Philosophy:
I teach to reach. It is my goal to make sure no child is left without understanding and mastery of the content in my class and that they walk out of my room with more than just book knowledge, they take with them life skills that will keep them progressing forward towards success.
