Teaching

Larry Russick, after cleaning for umpteen years, went back to school for his Masters in education. Since then, 1995, he has taught English, history, and Title 19 reading in middle school; math, including algebra, in adult education; tutored most subjects and worked for Little Scientists, on and off, for 10 years. While at Little Scientists, he was Director of Science Education teaching hands-on, inquiry-based science to children from pre-k to sixth grade, mentoring teachers, and leading workshops showing elementary and pre-k teachers how to do the same.

He offers a science program for preschools and staff developments in hands-on, inquiry based science for pre-k and elementary schools.

He is available for tutoring in most elementary subjects and English, history, Earth Science,  Algebra, and Geometry in secondary.

Currently he is developing a full day workshop on teaching hands-on, inquiry-based science and creating curriculum to meet national and Connecticut science standards for elementary schools.
