Allow us to introduce ourselves…
Today your child began an exciting science program in their classroom offered by Science from Scientists. SfS is a Boston-based, non-profit organization that strives to improve science and technology attitudes and aptitudes. We send real scientists into the classroom during school every other week to teach exciting, fun, and curriculum-relevant science lessons. We will be visiting your child’s classroom every other week throughout the school year. We will bring engaging, informative, and stimulating hands-on lessons with us to supplement the school’s science curriculum.
At McKinley, we have two scientists from very different fields: Cortney Wieber is our Director of Education. She recently finished her master’s degree in Australia where she worked with flying foxes and zoonotic viruses. Dilya Arslanova has a master’s degree in biochemistry and has worked on finding successful treatments for Alzheimer’s disease.
Please check the Classroom Post on our website regularly to read about the science activities that your child is participating in and to view photos from your child’s classroom.
