Class Description:
My class is made up of a dynamic group of 6, 7, 8, and 9 year old children with a vast array of needs. Some read up to two grade levels behind coming in and some read upto five grade levels ahead.

Our room has varying needs. Social/Emotional needs are at the top with a wide range of academic focus needs.

My philosophy is simple. ALL children CAN learn. It is my job to figure out how.
Personal Information:
Why Do I Teach?:
I teach because I do not ever want a child to feel as if there is not a person who cares for them. I teach because I believe all children can, and will learn. I teach because I believe every human needs a strong foundation in order to give back and help others. To do good. To get good. I teach because I believe you have to like school to learn school. I teach because I believe in kids.
