Ms. Poor – Room 8   

      

Because this course is extremely important for a student's success,  I take my responsibility to teach it very seriously.  Not only is Biology I required for graduation, students must also pass a State Assessment in Biology I. 

 

But that doesn't mean it can't be an enjoyable, enlightening experience! 

 

At Sumner Hill, we have developed a curriculum designed to help students surpass all expectations.  Lessons will include research-based activities geared to get the mind going (otherwise known as inquiry-based science).   And although the textbook is an important reference, it is certainly not the only tool we'll use for learning.  My classroom is equipped with 5 internet ready computers, notes are given using presentation software and an LCD overhead projector, and lab facilities are equipped to foster a "Hands-on, Minds-on" environment.

 

This website is for students and parents to use to keep track of what's happening in my class this year.  I've included some useful information as well as some useful links.  I hope it will come in handy!

 

I'm really looking forward to this year, and I hope you are as well!
