Elementary Educators and Parents

Are you:

Overwhelmed by everything you need to cover a science lesson?
Not sure where to start to set your students up for success with science?
Frustrated by how much time it takes to prep for a science lesson?

Imagine if you could...

Have a fool-proof way to get your students excited to study science, regardless of your current lessons plans, or how your students learn best on an individual level.

Teach an engaging, interactive science lesson that your students will love and that will stick with them for the rest of their lives with zero prep from you.

Feel confident that your lessons are aligned to Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and Common Core Standards. They're also created by a credentialed Montessori and state-certified educator with over 25 years of teaching experience, including years of being a teacher educator.

Keep your students happy and interested in learning, enjoying teaching science, and still have time to spend with your family and friends.

If this sounds like your ideal situation when it comes to teaching science, the Science Simplified Workshop is for you.

Exactly how to teach a science lesson without the overwhelm and frustration you've experienced in the past.

Spark Your Students’ Interest in Science, Regardless of What You’re Teaching

Use your students’ own personal excitement and interest in the world around them to spur them to learn more about science.

Involve your students with active learning highlighting their interests and talents. Help them apply the basic principles of science for years to come.

Increase Your Own Confidence in Teaching Science, Regardless of Your Previous Experience

Even if science was your worst subject in school, you’ll have no problems teaching your students using these proven strategies.

These are the science lessons you’ll wish you’d learned when you were a kid, because they show how science applies to your everyday life.

Demonstrate How Science Naturally Intertwines Every Aspect of Your Students' Education

Integrate your science lessons with math, history, art, communication, research, writing, language, reading comprehension, and so much more!
Show your students how science connects to everything and reduce your own workload when you overlap subjects.

This is for you if...

you are a parent or teacher who is searching for a way to incorporate high-level science but don't want to spend all the time to learn the concept, prep and create hands-on experiential learning yourself. You value an expert guiding you.

This is not for you if...

you are want to spend hours and hours creating your own lesson by researching the science, brainstorm different activities, and them spend more time looking for the materials. I'm just saying.... is 2-3 hours of your time worth $7?

If you're thinking maybe next month...

Perhaps you're not teaching this concept yet. While I was teaching, I'd have 3 strands of science going at the same time. The strategy I'm teaching will allow you to do this. You can NEVER have too much science! :)

Here's A Little About Me

I'm an elementary (1st - 6th grade) credentialed Montessori teacher with 11 years of teaching experience.

I love seeing children's eyes light up when they're experiencing hands-on activities.

After a college study abroad studying wildlife management in Kenya, I worked as a wildlife biologist in Colorado, New York and Cameroon.

Yes, my dream was to be the next Jane Goodall!

I've worked at CGMS (Center for Guided Montessori Studies) since 2017.

As an instructional guide, field consultant and practicum guide, I help adult learners earn their Montessori teaching credentials.

I love to read!

I'm state credentialed to teach middle school and high school biology.

Once upon a time, I was classroom teacher struggling with balancing time prep, family and friends.

Now, I help YOU overcome the overwhelm!

I believe science and nature can bring us true happiness and peace.

When I was young, I wanted to be a veterinarian.

I have two elementary-aged children who inspire the lessons.

I love to travel - Mostly to eat local cuisine!

BETTER TOGETHER

Looking forward to getting to know you :)
