Mrs. Brooks 7th Grade Science
Hello! My name is Maegan Brooks. I grew up in Lindale, a small town in East Texas. I graduated from the University of North Texas with a BA in Psychology and minor in Spanish. Then, I completed a teaching program through LeTourneau University. After graduating, I had the privilege of some really great teaching experiences including working as an Outdoor Education teacher and teaching 7th grade Science for 6 years before moving to North Carolina. I have a wonderful husband, John, and two sweet children, Flyn (11) and Hazel (7). I have enjoyed teaching 7th grade science at PCMS for the past 2 years and am looking forward to a great year 3! In my free time, I love to explore everything outdoors, cook, play the guitar, and catch a ball game.
In 7th grade science, we will explore the wonders of the natural world through engaging experiments, interactive projects, and collaborative learning. Topics will include:
- Earth Science: Atmosphere, Weather, and Climate
- Physical Science: Energy, Forces, and Motion
- Life Science: Cells, Human Body Systems, and Genetics
My goal is to foster a classroom learning environment to help your child:
-Develop a strong science vocabulary
-Make connections in science to other academic subjects
-Utilize technology to enhance learning
-Develop critical thinking skills and the ability to challenge assumptions, think creatively, and solve real-life problems
-ENJOY LEARNING NEW THINGS!
