Introduction Post

Hello! My name is Melissa Rafferty and I am a science teacher at North Kingstown High School. I teach mostly 9th grade Earth and Physical Science as well as junior/senior electives such as Pharmacology and Sport Science. I just finished my seventh year of teaching. I'm enrolled in the ASTL program at RIC.

In my free time I like to run, garden, read, and spend time with friends and family. My husband and I are both from New Hampshire and spend a lot of time hiking the White Mountains with our black lab, Luna, and exploring Lake Winnipesaukee.

I'm excited to explore the concept of media literacy with everyone and learn new ways to implement technology effectively in my classroom!
