About me

Hi! I am Lauren Kartzman. I teach lower school science, upper school wood shop, and electives at Manhattan Country School in New York City. I love to find ways to collaborate with my coworkers on interdisciplinary projects and enjoy getting my classes outside as much as possible.

Enjoy this documentation of my journey through the Fab Learning Academy!

My background

I grew up in mulitple locations: Arizona, Guam and California, but I have lived in Brooklyn, NY longer than any of my childhood outposts. I am fortunate to have lived in areas that provided access to nature spaces and taught me the importance of environmental activism. I have a B.A. in Biological Sciences and a M.S. in Childhood Education and Museum Education. My passion is teaching at the intersection of science and design education and challenging students to cultivate and feel empowered by their creativity.
