Janice Bredahl

I am a dedicated middle school science teacher in North Carolina who is passionate about helping students connect with the natural world through hands-on learning and exploration. I believe environmental education plays a vital role in helping students understand the relationship between people and the environment while developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills. In my classroom, I incorporate investigations, outdoor learning experiences, and real-world environmental issues to make science meaningful and relevant. My goal is to inspire curiosity, encourage stewardship, and empower students to make informed decisions that positively impact their communities and the environment.
