Feeling limited on lab days?
Y'all, I know what it's like to dread lab days...
- You're teaching in a room with zero running water and 30 desks crammed in a space made for 20
- Your "lab budget" for supplies is just whatever you're willing to pay for out of your own pocket
- You're constantly overwhelmed, rushing to cover all your standards before the high-stakes end-of-course exam
- …and lab days? They leave you feeling discouraged, drained and stuck at school late cleaning up well beyond your contract hours
The worst part? Every state has lab requirements you HAVE to meet, but most schools don’t equip science teachers with what they actually need to fulfill those requirements and execute lab days well – and sitting through another generic PD that’s clearly designed for English teachers definitely isn’t helping!
Your students deserve engaging hands-on learning experiences, and you WANT to give those to them, but you don’t know how to do that without totally draining yourself – your energy, time, and even your wallet.
Let’s fix that.
What's inside "Labs When Limited"
This bite-sized virtual professional development course is specifically created for high school science teachers who are short on time, energy, space, and supplies – yet still want to rock lab days. You’ll get:
- 4 focused video lessons (2 hours total) addressing each limitation area with practical solutions for working with limited time, energy, space, and resources
- Printable PDF workbook to help you actually implement what you learn
- Lab Audit Google Doc Template to evaluate and improve your current lab activities
- Essential Supplies Google Spreadsheet so you can stop wasting money on the wrong stuff
Unlike other science PDs created by teachers with fully-equipped lab classrooms (must be nice!), this course speaks directly to what MOST of us actually experience – trying to do hands-on science with 30+ students in spaces never designed for it.
From dreading lab days to actually looking forward to them!
Feel confident planning and executing labs despite your limitations
Have practical strategies to make lab days run smoothly (regardless of your class size)
Know exactly which supplies are worth your limited budget
Transform lab days from energy-draining chaos into engaging learning experiences
Actually look forward to lab days as much as your students do!
Why I created this (and why you can trust me to help you!)
I spent the majority of my teaching career in a non-lab classroom, trying to do labs without any proper equipment. I know exactly what it’s like to have students attempting “labs” at their desks (because you don’t have lab tables), constantly feeling rushed through labs due to time (resulting in no one actually learning anything from it) and feeling like you’re constantly scrambling on lab days, trying to keep everyone safe and on task.
But I also figured out how to get to a place where I actually LOVED lab days as much as my students did. This free course shares everything I learned the hard way so you don’t have to.
This is perfect for high school science teachers (though middle school science teachers will benefit too!) who feel limited in their ability to provide quality lab experiences. It’s not for teachers of other subjects or those with fully-equipped lab classrooms who are just looking for new lab ideas.
No catch, I promise!
There is literally no catch. Over 3,000 science teachers have already taken this course, and everyone who’s left feedback has given it 5 stars. Yes, I’ll send you a few follow-up emails to check in and make sure you’re accessing everything, but there’s no obligation to purchase anything else.
I have other paid resources that can support you if you need them, but this free course delivers real, immediate value whether you ever buy anything from me or not.
Rooting for you, always,
