I am Mrs. Amanda Johns your student's teacher. I am a mother, dog mom, and wife. I enjoy spending my free time organizing, doing puzzles, reading, and traveling to California. I am a teacher who runs on Dutch Bros and Disney! I wear converse shoes and live to make memories. I teach my kids the time we have with our family and making memories is far more important than recording them. I spent my summer seeing family, deep cleaning my house, reading, and traveling. As entertaining as it was I am looking forward to getting back to school and being in my new classroom. I can't wait to see all my new students and a few familiar as well.
This is my 6th school year teaching special education and I'm absolutely loving it! I was the kid who wanted to be a teacher when I grew up. I always knew I wanted to work with children. I believe in the power of yet. I don't put limits on my students I simply understand they cannot doing it yet. I want all my students to have the chance to get the most out of their educational experiences. I am looking forward to teaching Math, Science, and Life Skills. Hands on learning is my favorite way of teaching and I have found its the best way to encouraging learning. It keeps my students engaged and increases the thought proces.
As A Teacher
I Love Teaching the Big Kids! I love to watch the personalities blossom and I enjoy helping to mold them into the people they want to be. I have gained the experience of working with various disabilities and have seen vast amounts of improvement from all students socially and educationally. I don't want to just allow your student to grow within the classroom I want them to grow outside the classroom as well. I look to allow your student the opportunity to build relationships with their peers throughout the school. One thing I have found is that they are not the only ones learning in the classroom and I am not the only one doing the teaching. I enjoying giving my students the opportunities to teach me things they know that I do not. As their teacher I will push your students past their current ability levels to points I know they are capable of reaching. I believe in the saying "It's not that you can't do it. You just can't do it yet." I want them to grow in all levels of life that I can help with, not just in their IEP goals.
