  • Master of Science in Science Education
  • Attend AP seminars, Broward County Science
    Department Head meetings and professional
    development seminars
  • Always researching ways to motivate students and
    get curriculum delivered
  • Work closely with a group of outstanding teachers
    in our department

Chemistry Content Delivery
  • Pre-AP track
  • Central theme is matter,principles of structure,
    matter-energy relationships, mole concept,
    thermodynamics, theory, chemical change and
    equations
  • We cover these topics by means of hands-on
    laboratory investigations, promote student
    inquiry, textbook readings, assignments and
    projects
  • Implement common core reading and writing
    standards
  • Jupitered and www.mrshdppchs.com
  • Opt out of midterm/final with A or B

4
Common Core Goals
  • READING SCIENCE WITH DEEP UNDERSTANDING
  • ANALYZING DATA SCIENTIFICALLY
  • APPLYING COMMON CORE TO STEM

5
What students need EVERYDAY
  • 1-2 subject spiral with pockets or 3 ring binder
  • graph paper (for labs)
  • pens, pencils, white out, stapler at home,
    scientific calculator with EE, EXP key
  • Must have a calculator every day

6
GRADING
  • Tests 40
  • Quizzes 20
  • Projects/Labs 15
  • Homework/Classwork 15
  • Notebook/articles 10
  • Students must be reading textbook and reviewing
    material covered in class (written in notebook)
  • Time management

7
Tutorial websites videos sent via Jupiter and
on my website
  • http//khanacademy.org/science/chemistry
  • http//bozemanscience.com/chemistry
  • Tyler DeWitt u-tube videos

8
Basic rules/procedures
  • HW is reviewed in class and not accepted late.
  • Honesty and integrity is demanded learning does
    not take place when students copy work. Students
    may not work together on assignments that
    require individual work. The only info shared in
    lab is the data. (consequence is a zero and a
    referral)
