Laurinburg, NC
Class Information:
Room Number: 47
Students per Class: 20
Class Description:
My class is small this year which is not typical, but I share a classroom with another teacher who has 24 students. My students are so funny and fun to be around. They are caring and helpful. There are only a few years when a teacher gets to say that they have an amazing class. This year I have an amazing class.
Position:
Teacher
Needs:
We need technology. our classroom technology is outdated and rarely works. I love using technology but when it doesn't work the students get frustrated and so do I.
My Philosophy:
Every student can learn. They may not all learn at the same rate but everyone can learn. I like to look at the progress of a child and as long as they are moving forward they are making progress no matter how fast or slow. Life is not a sprint it is a marathon. I never want to be a teacher who squashes a child's love of learning or of life. I want to make them feel wanted and loved. Every year I have a goal to find something special that I love about every student.
