About the "Interactive Science Teacher" |
|
My name is Bill Wilkinson (students just call me "Mr. W") and I love teaching science!
In the 16 years I've taught one thing has remained constant-
ALL students learn better when their their hands and minds work together.
Currently my title is Science Liaison for Vigo County Schools in
Terre Haute, Indiana, where I teach daily in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade classrooms in different middle schools.
I am proud to say that every lesson on this site is an original that I really did with real students.
Only lessons that achieve a rich balance of natural curiosity, science standards, content, and appeal to all students
are good enough for this site.
