Class overview
In our class we will be covering a variety of topics in both the subject areas of math and social studies. In 5th grade for math we work on decimals, place value, and finishing up work with units. For social studies in 5th we are discussing United States History. In 6th grade for math we start work with ratios and fractions. For social studies in 6th we are working through some World History. I hope to incorporate many activities and interactive opportunities to help children learn and grow together as a whole class.
My Teaching Philosophy
I believe every student is able to be taught and is able to learn.
I believe teaching goes outside of the classroom.
I believe students can learn better in a social environment in which they can bounce ideas and discussions off of peers.
I believe students should have a sense of confidence, self-efficacy, and hope in everything they do.
I believe students should feel motivated in the classroom to accomplish goals and challenges.
