Life Science Extravaganza with Governor's Academy of Teaching Excellence (GATE) students!

"The one thing I will remember from this experience is that no matter what age or what subject I will be teaching in the future, teaching is my passion....As long as I am watching the connections that student make as they learn, that is something I will ALWAYS remember."

*I always thought science was all research that teachers have to do and present the information to students. In my schools years in science, I never got to do any projects...Learning science is an amazing subject for the student and for them to discover new things.
*The one thing I will remember from the experience is as soon as I made the topic relevant to the students they were interested.
*This experience reassured how much I personally love science and how much I am going to enjoy teaching it to my future students.
*The one thing I will remember from participating in this event would be not to be afraid of high school students!
*To be quite honest, teaching science is easier said than done no matter what grade you are planning to teach!
* I was able to relate the outside world and bring it in to their world.
*Inquiry is central to science learning.
*I learned a lot about myself and my abilities that I did not think I possessed.
*The impact that this project has on students is priceless and if I can give th same experience to other students I would do it again and again.
