9th year teaching.Taught 8th grade science, Physical Science, a mixture of introduction to both Chemistry and Physics for 5 years, Introduction to Biology for one year, and have worked at an Alternative High School teaching Algebra, Geometry, Chemistry, and Ecology. Pre-algebra, ESL, special needs students, and students with IEPs.
Find a way to make them all understand! Making objectives and curriculum relevant to today's teens as well as making sure test taking skills are interspersed is exactly what I like to do to make students successful in this day and age of constant testing.
