The Homeschool Scientist

Welcome to The Homeschool Scientist!

We are excited about science and want you and your family (or class) to LOVE it too!

After receiving my master’s degree in early childhood development and education, I spent several years teaching at a private church school. I then went to work for a biotech firm in Boston working in their laboratory sites across the United States, developing processes and computer systems to improve testing efficiency and accuracy in DNA laboratories.

In addition to running all things on The Homeschool Scientist, I am currently pursuing a post-baccalaureate in Biology, write a science column for Homeschooling Today Magazine, and write for the CTCMath blog.

With 20 years of teaching experience (homeschool and classroom) both in the United States and abroad, I have authored over 40 science kits and have coached and mentored robotics teams from elementary through high school.  I served as a founding Board member for our state’s FIRST Lego League and held the role of Judging Director for six years.

I am a firm believer in hands-on learning at any age and want to dispel the myth that you or your students may have that, “I can’t do science.”

I’m also a part-time missionary, of sorts. During the last five years, I have made three trips to the same school/hostel in Bangladesh. In 2019, I lived and taught in a village outside of Dhaka. One of my assignments was to teach the children programming, which I did using Lego WeDo2.0 and EV3 kits.

Helping all students gain access to education is something I value. You will find that the materials we create are geared to be hands-on and flexible. Each child learns differently and at a different pace; we strive to remove frustration and provide each student the opportunity to explore and test their own ideas.

Also on the site, you will see a homeschool graduate, Leah. She has her formal educational training in biology and has a special interest in genetics, animal biology, and helping students who struggle in the sciences.  Leah has spent several years developing science activities for students K-6 and has traveled throughout the U.S. conducting science activity workshops for children. She is a Research Assistant with a focus on genetics and tutors multiple levels of college biology through the university’s Academy Success Center.

Tonya brings over 25 years of teaching experience. She has homeschooled her 3 children for the past 2 decades. She has worked with multiple children with learning differences. She has had to research extensively to find curriculum/ learning opportunities that would be the perfect fit for each child’s learning style. She has taught in co-ops, led Scout troops, and was active in the American Heritage Girls. She researches fun and educational resources that we can share with you.

 

We are so glad you’re here!
