ABOUT THE TEACHER
I am Latrice Gardner and I am thrilled to be teaching at Burke County HIgh School this year! I am passionate about teaching and I love helping students develop skills and achieve mastery towards their academic, vocational, and career goals.
I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry Education from South Carolina State University, a Master of Arts degree in Natural Science from the University of South Carolina, and an Educational Specialist in Educational Administration and Supervision from Lincoln Memorial University.
I have taught in Clarke County Schools (Athens, GA), Richmond County Schools (Augusta, GA), and in Aiken County Schools (Graniteville, SC).
I enjoy teaching high school age students the most, but I have also taught science at the middle school and college level. I hope to spark interest and excitement in my students about science this year at Burke County High School.

Physical Science Course Details
Physical Science includes abstract concepts such as the conceptualization of the structure of atoms and the role they play in determining the properties of materials, motion and forces, the conservation of energy and matter, wave behavior, electricity, and the relationship between electricity and magnetism. The idea of radioactive decay is limited to the understanding of whole half-lives and how a constant proportional rate of decay is consistent with declining measures that only gradually approach to zero. Students investigate physical science concepts through the study of phenomena, experiences in laboratory settings, and field work.
