New School Year Ahead!
Hello my name's Ms.Nixon
My name is Ms.Nixon and I will be your science teacher for the upcoming school year!
Hello future students and parents/ guardians. I am very excited to meet and speak with all of you in the near future. Teaching is a true passion of mine. I love knowing that I can make a difference in peoples lives and hopefully serve as a positive role model for my students. Science can tend to be a troublesome subjects for students. Many times students can feel that science is too hard, or boring but with the right guidance science can be a very interesting, fun, and fulfilling subject to learn. My hopes are to show your students that science is awesome to study and not boring at all. Throughout the year we will be doing many projects. I rarely give homework throughout the year unless I feel my students need more practice with a topic. Normally the only homework they may have is to work on their upcoming projects. Below I will list some topics we will be covering this year, explain the projects they will be doing a little bit more, and describe the assignment I have set up that needs to be complete when they arrive to class on the first day of school. See you then!!!
Projects
Projects will help students to learn topics in fun and creative ways. When learning it is beneficial to really engage the students in the lesson. Through projects students express themselves through engaging their creativity. Students will have many options for ways to do their projects. For example they can choose to write a paper, short story, create a poster, diagram or model. Students can also create a game to play in class to further practice the topic or create a video. If a student has an idea for a project that is not listed it just has to be approved.
Science Topics for the Year!
- Reproduction
- Genetics
- Forces and Motion
- And many more :)
