This year I am excited to be spending my fifteenth year in the classroom;
twelve of which have been in Cobb County. While I was still teaching at
Wheeler High School my parents moved to Georgia; therefore, I requested a
transfer to Kennesaw Mountain High School to teach closer to home and reduce
my daily commute. Currently I have taught at “The Mountain” for six exciting
years!
As a teacher, my goals are to motivate my students to
1. become life long learners.
2. not just memorize information, but analyze and apply what they have
learned to real-life scenarios.
3. appreciate that learning is not always easy, but is truly worth the
effort.
4. value the meaning of the equation: work input > work output.
5. to place greater significance on learning information than on a
numerical grade.
Research and Internship:
Magnet Advanced Scientific Research will be blocked with Advanced Science
Internship. Emphasis for this course will be in-depth scientific research
skills, scientific writing, and data analysis. Culmination of this course
will be a scientific paper which will be presented to a faculty/ community/
research panel. Prerequisites are two math and/or science AP courses.
Magnet Advanced Scientific Internship places heavy emphasis on scientific
applied research. Students will be required to develop a worksite/research
topic. Students will prepare an electronic portfolio and multi-media
presentation for the course. Prerequisites are two math and/or science AP
courses
Magnet Physics:
This course will help you to more thoroughly understand how and why things
work and move the way they do. Physics is a lab-oriented course that
includes topics related to matter, energy and their interactions. Emphasis
is on conceptual understanding, problem solving, laboratory application of
skills to a mathematical application of the theories and laws governing the
interactions of matter, energy and the forces of nature.
In order to be successful in physics, problems must be solved and concepts
must be reviewed on a daily basis.
