Learner Profile Attributes: 

Risk-Taker and Reflective. 

My goal is to provide my little artists with traditional art-making techniques and materials, but also expose them to digital art mediums. 

As an art teacher, I am introducing more community-based projects. I have worked with local animal shelters with my unit on portraits, where we create "Pet Portraits", and donate them to bring awareness and potential forever homes.  Building kindness and empathy through our art production can be very rewarding. 

Learner Profile Attributes: 

Open-minded and Inquirer

My goal is to ignite creativity and foster appreciation and love for music in my students.

As a music teacher I'm also a life-long learner. Music as an art discipline constantly evolves and changes due to our society also changing, and that naturally sparks my interest in learning new things. I'm currently learning how to play the ukulele so I can share this skill with our students later this year and teach them how to also play this fun instrument.

Hi! My learner profile is Knowledgeable. I love learning about people, places, and things.  Fun Fact: Jeopardy was one of my favorite game shows growing up. I love trivia game shows!

This year, my focus is on making learning fun by engaging students through projects and experiments that push their thinking and creativity. Let's enjoy building knowledge together!

 Learner Profile: 

Inquirer and Principled

I honestly believe that our learner profiles change with how we are learning and what we are learning.  I have definitely been a thinker, caring etc.   I feel lately I am an inquirer as I love to learn and find out more information and am principled because I believe in doing what is right.

In Library this year students will be  researching, using databases, reading, talking about IB and finding things they are interested in.
