Blogs

I teach two science classes, 7th grade life science, and 9th grade Living Environment.  For each of these classes I maintain a class blog.  I post to these blogs several times a week.  I usually summarize what has been going on in class, any upcoming assignments, and I also post copies of labs and notes.  I also post screencasts of our Powerpoint notes.

Podcasts

Whenever I am completing notes with my students I record the Powerpoint slides from the computer and audio from our classroom.  I prepared these videos as video podcasts that are available via iTunes.  Clicking the links below will open iTunes and allow you to subscribe to the podcasts.

School Website

Our school uses SchoolCenter for its website and I have an official school page on that site.  I really don’t update it at all, since I am now using the blogs above for posting content.  This page mainly just has my bio and pointers to the blogs.
