Enthusiasm, inviting and thought provoking are three ways to describe my classroom. I was inspired by my high school literature teacher to pursue a teaching career. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in early childhood education in 2010. Similar to my high school literature teacher, I implement a style of teaching that allows all students to feel successful and loved. The students in my classroom play an important role in creating a classroom community. I believe that a student’s success is dependent upon building relationships that create a desire needed for instructional learning to take place. My students explore mathematical concepts by connecting to real world applications and exploring with hands on activities! This engages and hooks my students to become invested in their learning process. I am looking forward to all the relationships and growths we will experience together this school year!
