Standard 3 Checklist

 Context:

I created this standard three checklist to show that I have taken classes that have given me a broad knowledge and understanding of the major concepts of Science.

Impact:

This will impact my future students greatly because I will have the knowledge I need to teach them the major concepts of Science.
