My fellowship ignited my passion for science again. I truly would like to teach science after working in the lab for three weeks. I enjoyed running DNA extractions, PCR, and gel electrophoresis on soil samples. I believe science and math are so interconnected and there are numerous ways that I can incorporate science within my curriculum.  I think one of the most important things that I gleaned from my fellowship is the importance of collaboration. I loved collaborating and working with Amy, Laura, and my mentors at the museum. We wrote our lesson plans together and worked on the soil project together. I am determined to incorporate collaborative work within my curriculum this school year. I think I would have been a little intimidated if I had to go through this process alone.
