I believe in educating the whole child through hands-on experiences. It is my job as an educator to help my students learn and grow into the best they can be in the classroom and in the community. I will do this by providing my students with a safe and friendly learning environment where they are able to explore and discover, a place where they know it is okay to make mistakes. I will provide my students with rich experiences through learning centers, peer discussions, and hands-on activities. Every student will leave my classroom feeling loved, valued, and inspired.
