Volunteer for school science laboratory
To the Editor:
Have you ever seen the light in a student’s eyes when they learn a new concept? I have and its magic!
I have taught science in the past. However, I don’t think it matters. If you get an experienced science teacher to assist, they will know how to teach the laboratory and more importantly they will know the curriculum for that grade.
My own experience was with Mark Ethridge teaching fifth-grade science at Central Elementary School. Mr. Ethridge was knowledgeable, knew the curriculum and had a great flair for presenting science concepts with samples.
So, if you are possibly interested in volunteering to help with science lab in the public schools, I invite you to call me (828.246.0657) for help in getting started. The schools badly need volunteers and you’ll get a kick out of helping.
