About Me
Hi everyone! My name is Raks Derival, and I am a high school science teacher at the Innovation Academy Charter School. I curently teach chemistry, chemistry for a healthier you, and forensic science. I look forward to adding molecular biology to the mix. I am the proud mother of 2 sons and proud coach of 2 volleyball teams (not rivals). I am a GREEN CHEMISTRY ENTHUSIAST. That's the stuff that really puts the wind in my sails. Don't know about it? You better ask somebody! Or just click here.
I enjoy working out, spreading sunshine, inspiring, being inspired, making others laugh, and laughing from others' jokes. I especially enjoy chemistry jokes. Here's a small treat for you:
Q: Why do chemists call helium, curium and barium the medical elements?
A: Because if you can't helium or curium, you barium!
I created this WebQuest as part of a course in my master's program at Franklin Pierce University. This course is very special to me, and I am sure it's one of the most valuable I will have taken in my career. I would appreciate any feedback that you might have on this WebQuest. You can email me at rderival@innovationcharter.org if you'd like to reach me with questions, comments, or send me some awesome chemistry jokes.
Enjoy!
