Our Learning Glade

My educational philosophy centers around creating a caring classroom community where students feel valued. In this nurturing environment it is safe to take risks, ask questions and make mistakes. We will explore using all of our senses. Students will learn how to take ownership of their learning and let their natural curiosity guide inquiry. Students will develop trans-disciplinary skills that will prepare them for lives of action and integrity.

My classroom management style promotes clear goals, consistent progress and compassionate care while focusing on the whole child development, not just test scores. My classroom is always multi-sensory and language rich. My goal is for students to feel like school is a positive place where learning is an ongoing adventure.
