What I hope to gain from the fellowship experience

I am honored and humbled to be a Kenan Fellow. I know this experience will give me the vehicle and network to bring some powerful learning  opportunities to my students.

By gaining hands-on field and research experience, I will be able to connect my students to a real-world, living model of the scientific  method. I will document the entire internship so that my students can live this adventure with me in hopes that it teaches and inspires.

Additionally, I hope to develop a network of positive, like minded teachers and professionals that adds to my support network and resource base. I expect I will be able to tap into some of the best minds in our state to make my classroom more exploratory, engaging and enriching.

Overall, I believe this is a great program that will help me create a great classroom. Thank you Kenan Fellows for this life-changing journey.
