It successfully integrates many subjects. In addition to this, several teachers, including myself, have helped develop a year long curriculum that teaches our students many areas of science. One of my students' favorite unit of study is oceanography. I think one of the reasons they are so interested is because of our great distance from the ocean. I strive to challenge students to look at and learn from where they are.
Education extends beyond textbooks and the classroom.
Not all of my students will become scientists, but I hope to show them that science is a part of every aspect of their lives.
