Educational Philosophy

    It is my sincere goal to help students develop an enthusiasm for learning and the confidence and responsibility necessary to succeed. I  work toward this goal by:

      *Creating a warm and caring environment

      *Offering motivating and meaningful activities

      *Maintaining high, but attainable expectations

*Using positive reinforcement so that all children believe they can reach       their  full  potential

      *Involving parents in the educational process

 Statement of Beliefs

  *The parent is a child’s first and most influential teacher.

      *Student self-esteem is critical to the learning process.

    *Every student is important and is an important part of our  classroom community.

      *Every child is capable and expected to practice kindness.

    *All students can learn when given the opportunity and encouragement.

I look forward toa great year in first grade together!
