Hello

My name is Cait and I this is my eleventh year teaching Physical Science. Over the past ten years I have explored hundreds of activities, but it has taken some time to develop those resources that I love and that hit all my main goals for being a powerful lesson; critical thinking, communication, connectedness, content exploration, and engagement. I finally feel like I am starting to hone my craft and my niche this year and I am exciting to bring the resources I create to you.

​

My superpower as an educator is my ability to work tirelessly on forming relationships with each one of my students in ways that allow them to feel safe in having a voice, championed in challenging times, inspired to operate under high expectations, and celebrated for their academic and nonacademic successes, alike.

I embrace an approach to education that makes learning as engaging as it is real-world relevant. I believe it is essential to connect the dots on how the skills we are perfecting inside our classroom will impact students’ lives outside our classroom. I am equal parts educator, entertainer, and ringmaster; if I don’t have the attention of my students, I have no shot of helping them to become critical thinkers, respectful collaborators, purposeful communicators, and global citizens. Also, science should be fun! 

In my personal life, I am a lover of movie trailers, an inquisitive baker, an enthusiast of art, a passionate builder of wooden things, and person who believes in common sense, turn signals, and that a warm cup of coffee is one of the best simple pleasures in life. 

Thank you for reading.
