My goal is to fill this site with loads of useful information for biology teachers and their students.
I recently retired from teaching biology at Fairhope High School in Fairhope, AL. Fairhope is also my high school alma mater from which I was graduated in 1971. Our school colors are blue and gold and our mascot is a Pirate.

Over a period of 25 years in the classroom I have collected and developed many ideas. In addition, while "surfing the 'net" I have found many good sources of ideas, lesson plans, and information. Now, I'd like to share a few of my favorites with you.
My Second Term 1998 9th Grade College Preparatory Biology students completed a "Postcard Project." Their assignment was to create postcards with a biological theme suitable for mailing to 2nd and 3rd grade students across the United States.
