I can relate. My 9th grade Biology teacher inspired me to become a Scientist. It was years in the making, however, since I dropped out in the 10th grade and didn't go to college until I was 28. I taught seventh grade Science for 2 yrs and that was the grade I failed!!!lol. I hope that I can inspire these kids to stay in school and aspire to greatness instead of settling for mere existance. I work on the Texas/Mexico border and education is not very important to many, here. I love to teach, and I am learning to love BP's more and more.Originally Posted by MarkieJ
Hey!I'm a fellow science teacher as well. I teach high school Chemistry and Biology. I've done similar things with my classes in the past when I had one of my BPs in the classroom. I'm getting my BPs ready for the breeding season so I don't have one in the classroom right now.
Incidentally I was inspired to become a teacher by my high school Biology teacher. He had a classroom full of reptiles and fish. I now teach in the very classroom that inspired me at my alma mater!
