My Philosophy


I believe it is important to create a community where all learners feel safe, respected and have a sense of belonging. It is important to focus equally on the social, emotional and academic needs of students. I strive to meet children where they're at by differentiating instruction, choosing developmentally appropriate activities and providing a balance between teacher-directed and self-directed learning. I value play, the arts, movement, creativity and laughter as important and meaningful parts of the learning process for children.

Sharing Our Homework

This week we finished up our poetry unit with a "Poetry Slam" on Thursday.  Everyone chose a favorite piece of poetry they have created and shared it with our class.  Everyone had a fun time.
Next week we will begin units about  reading tricky words, and opinion writing in literacy.  We will continue with those units through the end of the month of April.  We will continue our Fundations unit learning about suffixes into next week.  We will finish up our geometry unit in math and will begin our final unit of the school year about farms.  We will also continue our unit about Cultural Geography through the end of April.
Have a great long weekend!
