MY CLASSROOM
My classroom is a place where curiosity is encouraged. I aim to engage students in hands-on experiments and real-world applications of scientific concepts to deepen their understanding. Students will often work in groups to solve problems, conduct experiments, and share findings, fostering a supportive community. I encourage students to ask questions, analyze data, and draw conclusions based on evidence.
