Hello and welcome to the virtual open house.
- 00:03 - 00:06
I am Miss Frey's nail, and this semester I have
- 00:07 - 00:10
your child for biology or biology honors.
- 00:11 - 00:13
If you need me during the day, the best time
- 00:14 - 00:18
to contact me is from 1 35 to 3, which
- 00:18 - 00:25
is not planning a few lab supplies that your child
- 00:26 - 00:27
will need this semester.
- 00:29 - 00:31
There's a $5 lab fee for science.
- 00:32 - 00:34
They will also need a notebook pens or paper pencils
- 00:35 - 00:38
and color pencils if they want their own set.
- 00:39 - 00:41
I do have a class set of colored pencils and
- 00:42 - 00:45
crayons that they're welcome to use some optional supplies that
- 00:46 - 00:47
I would love to have our Kleenexes.
- 00:48 - 00:51
The kids also love the Kleenexes eyes, little colored paper
- 00:52 - 00:57
and card stock a little about me, so I am
- 00:57 - 00:57
express nil.
- 00:58 - 01:03
Um, I have two wonderful Children and a great husband,
- 01:04 - 01:10
Myka, who is nine, and Charlie, who was six and
- 01:10 - 01:12
and I have been married for 13 years.
- 01:13 - 01:13
This July.
- 01:14 - 01:17
My family is super important to me, along with my
- 01:18 - 01:19
faith and my Falcon family.
- 01:20 - 01:23
I am the softball coach at West Henderson, so there
- 01:23 - 01:25
may be times where if I'm not in my classroom.
- 01:26 - 01:27
When you call that I am on the softball field.
- 01:29 - 01:33
I am originally from South Carolina and I love the
- 01:33 - 01:38
Carolinas. I do love being in Hendersonville, and I also
- 01:38 - 01:40
am very passionate about science.
- 01:41 - 01:46
Hopefully, this will help you to understand my two goals
- 01:46 - 01:47
for this semester for your child.
- 01:49 - 01:50
I do have two goals, and one of them is
- 01:50 - 01:52
that they learn something new every day.
- 01:53 - 01:55
The second is that they enjoy science more when they
- 01:55 - 01:57
leave my classroom that when they entered my classroom.
- 02:02 - 02:07
As for curriculum, there are certain units that or mandated
- 02:08 - 02:12
by the Department of Public Instruction in North Carolina.
- 02:13 - 02:18
If you would like more information on those standards, feel
- 02:18 - 02:20
free to go to the DP.
- 02:20 - 02:24
I website major units that we will cover the semester.
- 02:24 - 02:31
Organic molecules enzymes So organelles, plasma membrane, cellular respiration and
- 02:31 - 02:35
photosynthesis, genetics, evolution and ecology.
- 02:37 - 02:42
I think biology is really important for especially high school
- 02:43 - 02:47
students to understand, because it is about them and about
- 02:47 - 02:51
their interaction with the environment and with others around them.
- 02:52 - 02:55
So my hope this semester that goes along with my
- 02:55 - 02:59
goal is that they do learn something throughout the semester,
- 03:00 - 03:02
not only about the curriculum, but also about themselves.
- 03:04 - 03:09
Migrating policy is, um, pretty straight board.
- 03:10 - 03:13
I do have definite due dates in my classroom, and
- 03:13 - 03:17
I will accept late work with a 10 point per
- 03:17 - 03:19
day deduction for up to a week.
- 03:19 - 03:25
If your child is absent, um, then that doesn't count
- 03:25 - 03:29
as a late grade test or 50% labs and products
- 03:30 - 03:32
air 20 along with quizzes and daily grades.
- 03:32 - 03:34
And in each unit there will be a unit portfolio
- 03:36 - 03:38
for your child to do, which will be due on
- 03:38 - 03:39
test day.
- 03:40 - 03:42
And that was 10% of their grade.
- 03:43 - 03:43
The E O.
- 03:43 - 03:46
C. Will be 20% of their final grade this semester,
- 03:47 - 03:51
and they will have to take that and how to
- 03:51 - 03:52
contact me.
- 03:54 - 03:56
If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to
- 03:56 - 03:59
email me or call the school and leave a message.
- 04:00 - 04:03
I will return or get back to you within 24
- 04:04 - 04:10
hours. Um, I'm so happy to be able to share
- 04:11 - 04:12
your child with you this semester.
- 04:13 - 04:15
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to get to
- 04:16 - 04:20
know them and to allow me the chance to teach
- 04:20 - 04:24
them. I hope you have a wonderful evening and thanks
- 04:25 - 04:27
