2. Welcome Parents! How can parents help?
Good Evening Prosper Families, this is my second year at Prosper High School and my 12th year teaching High School Science.
I have taught Anatomy & Physiology Biology, Pre-AP Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science and IPC.
This year I am teaching Anatomy & Physiology and Biology.
Exciting things for the year:
Dissections - vertebrate – human comparison dissections through out the school year
Throughout the year students will progress in their lab skills and knowledge in human anatomy
How can parents help?
Parents can help by encouraging students to read the online Anatomy book or the class notes for 20 – 30 minutes before each class.
Also, parents can encourage students to use the online practice links on google classroom to practice for a test.
