I have a very fun and busy classroom this year full of 28 little people that are ready to learn! I take pride in creating a safe, structured and productive classroom environment for my students. For many, this is their first exposure to school, and I am passionate about instilling a strong growth-mindset and love for lifelong learning! Although I strive for every student to reach their full scholastic potential, my goals for my students expand beyond academics. As a kindergarten teacher, I believe in teaching social skills and teamwork as well as problem-solving strategies and self-awareness. In other words, I believe in teaching little people how to be better people in all aspects of life (academic and social) by supporting them and cheering them on as they discover themselves and their capabilities. I am so excited about this year with these amazing kiddos!
