Howdy!  Welcome to 6th and 7th Grade Science!  I am so happy you have landed in my class this year!

I have been teaching at Eisenhower Middle School since 2010!.  This year I will be teaching 6th and  7th Grade Science.   

6th Grade Science is about the physical world and how it works. We will cover a bit of physics, chemistry and ecology and end the year learning about microscopes.  This is a foundational material where we are learning that scientific concepts explain the world around us. 

7th grade Science is a journey to connect the living world.  We begin with basic cell structures and functions and then spend the year applying this to our body systems and the living world around us.  I LOVE teaching content that my students will use for the rest of their lives to take care of themselves and the world around them!

Students WILL need a composition book or notebook EVERYDAY in class as well as general school supplies (binder, pens, pencils) that can be used in every class.  Please help your students succeed by replenishing supplies throughout the year.

My family and I have made San Antonio home for 26 years.  In that time, both of my children attended and graduated from NEISD schools.  Riley, my oldest, attended Texas A&M graduating in 2014.  He is currently a Civil Engineer living here in San Antonio with his beautiful wife, Kendall.  My daughter, Megan, graduated from Texas A&M Galveston in the Spring of 2018 and is a photographer in Colorado living with her husband.  My husband and I are empty nesters living with furry kids.

In the spirit of full disclosure - you should know that everyone in my house has graduated from A&M! We are Aggie fans.  Folks in my class will know LOTS of random Aggie facts by the end of the year!
