Biology 2007 = 2008

I've been teaching Science at American Fork Jr High School since 1995. I LOVE SCIENCE! It's the greatest! Science is Cool, Fun, Exciting, Amazing, and a host of other incredible adjectives. I also Love teenagers - yes, I know, that's a little bit crazy, but somebody's gotta do it right?
My goal is to help you become as excited about Science as I am (and it wouldn't hurt if you learn a bit in the process).
