There are many activities that teachers can do to enhance their science curriculum. For these reasons, this web page is for other elementary teachers and elementary students. My name is Tara Banks Morrison. I am currently a teacher of third grade in Columbia, South Carolina. I am also a few classes shy of gaining my Master's of Education from the University of South Carolina.
Science is an important subject to every grade level, but especially third.
In South Carolina, third graders are tested on their science abilities and knowledge in a state-wide testing program. It is based on the assumption that the learner has some knowledge of the terms and concepts related to the solar system. The purpose of this portfolio is to give more resources to teachers and students. Teachers may want to use this web page in computer lab with their students or with their co-workers to discover more ideas related to a solar system study. I want learners to be able to see, discover, investigate, but most of all, learn.
