​Oxon Hill Middle School

Prince George's County Public School

The charismatic 7th and 8th grade science honors teacher, who is also a trained actor, singer and dancer, uses student achievement data to plan differentiated learning activities and implement project-based learning that allows students to actively explore real world problems and acquire a deeper knowledge of subject matter.  Students engage in innovative projects like making homemade ice cream to explore chemical and physical changes in matter.  Impacting the greater community, Malone hosted a PiDay on a weekend for over 200 students and community members and led workshops for parents and students during a STEM night.  Her reputation is growing as district staff visit her classroom to observe her practices.
