Hey Science Teacher Friend, I’m Kayla
… the science-loving, candy-eating, coffee-fueled educator behind Bright in the Middle!
I’m a forever science teacher with a Ph.D. in Science/STEM Education (fancy, right?), but my heart is in the classroom—helping teachers like you make science engaging, effective, and actually fun without all the prep stress.
I create engaging, standards-aligned lessons using easy-to-find materials, inquiry-based questioning, and creative twists on classic topics. Whether it’s task cards, reference sheets, interactive lessons, or STEM activities, I’ve got your back!
I live by Romans 8:28—believing that all things work together for good—and my goal is to help you and your students SHINE BRIGHT in middle school science!
