The students in my Integrated Science and Geometry classes developed multimedia projects. The science class did
their project on Newton's Law of Motion. While in geometry, the students were grouped into pairs and taught a section
from the text. They were responsible for developing a plan, researching on the Internet for activities related to their
topic, laying out their lesson using Inspiration, writing and submitting a script, when appropriate assigning a homework
assignment, and having their project recorded. The students were evaluated as they progressed through the project through the
use of rubrics.

Student Projects:
The students that developed these projects are in 9 through 12 grade. They are in this class mainly because
of difficulty reading and comprehending the text in a mainstream science class. The students in the geometry class require
more time than is available within a mainstream setting. Therefore, the math class becomes a year long class as opposed
to a semester.

What a job!
I am a teacher of students with Learning Disabilities at Hamilton High School
in Sussex, WI. I co-teach with math and science teachers in the mainstream classes as well as teach in self-contained
LD classes. I provide tech support to the teachers, troubleshooting hardware problems, design and teach staff development
sessions, design and teach professional development classes during the summer, and am an adjunt professor at Marian College. This
year I am taking on something new; a Lego Robotics group for our middle school. This team will feed into our FIRST Robotics
team at the high school.
