Welcome to 7th grade Science!!!
I have been teaching 7th grade science for 11 years at Thompson. I have been teaching the the Murrieta school district for 22 years.
Science has always been my first love and my goal is to instill a love for science in all my students while also helping them become caring human beings.
I have been married for 34 1/2 years and have two children, a son and a daughter and three grandchildren: 2 girls and a boy. I LOVE animals and environmental issues so I am happy that our new science standards (NGSS) for 7th grade are covering many aspects of the world's environmental concerns. I have a passion for Orangutan's and I am involved with the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation and One More Generation, who are trying to save these fabulous animals.
