let me introduce myself
Welcome to my classroom website! This site is quite simple (no fancy bells and whistles) My main purpose for this website is to give you access to some important information you need for class. You or your parents can access this website and print that missing homework assignment, or review my classroom expectations...

My BackgroundI grew up in the Chicago area. In college and graduate school I studied to be a petroleum geologist. After I graduated I worked in the oil and gas industry in Houston, Texas and Lafayette, Louisiana. My job was to find places to drill for oil and gas. Later I moved back home to begin a new phase in my life and career as a geologist and project manager in the environmental consulting industry. My job was to investigate and clean up contaminated sites. Now my last phase to my career is teaching middle school science.

My GoalTeaching is an extremely challenging yet exciting and rewarding vocation. My hope is to help you become life-long learners...
I want to make this an engaging year of science for all. Understand I have a positive expectation for every student who enters my classroom. I believe you can do anything you set your mind to do. We are going to work hard this year but I believe you and I, together as a class, can have a great year of learning. |
