I then went back to school to get my teachers certificate and started teaching in Canon City last year. I have been married for 12 years and  I do have a child now (Haley), a cat and dog.

Biology:


This class focuses on an integrated study of life. "Why don't people get goose bumps on their faces? How do plants that make seedless fruit reproduce? Why are there so many different kinds of insects? For humans who share this planet with an amazing diversity of living thing, the natural world often poses questions that arouse our curiosity. More often than not, such questions have simple explanations, but sometimes nature defies common sense. Whether nature's puzzles are simple or complex, many may be explained with the concepts and principles of biological science."- Biology: The Dynamics of Life
