I wear many hats at my school which makes for busy and interesting weeks! I teach ELA and Science and I love the variety I have in my day... I can go from a poetry lesson to a lesson on volcanoes to a lesson on climate change in just a few hours!
I've teamed up with some of the amazing secondary science sellers of TpT for a fun Super Secondary Science Giveaway! Be sure to hop to the other great blogs to enter their contest too!

One of my favourite science topics to teach is Plate Tectonics - and the kids love it too! I live in Vancouver, Canada and we are well aware of earthquakes and volcanoes. We practice earthquake drills in class and spend hours talking about earthquake preparedness and earthquake safety. My students also love volcanoes... they love my stories of seeing lava in Hawaii and love seeing the photos I've taken of volcanoes around the world. Living in the shadow of a volcano (Mt. Baker in Washington state) also makes volcanoes seem all the more real!
I use many interactive activities to teach about Plate Tectonics! Read my blog post HERE about how I use Play-Dough as a final assessment! I also use graphic organizers, flip books and fold out books - even with my senior students! They love the hands on nature of the activities! Check out a few of my favourites below.
