My
My goal this year is to implement Common Core Learning Standards by creating a challenging and nurturing classroom environment where children have fun while they learn. I hope to develop a classroom community where kids feel safe and take risks while learning. I want my students to become critical thinkers and to know that it is OK to make mistakes because very often we learn from them! I hold high expectations for all of my students and expect them to try their very best each day to reach their highest potential. It is my goal to instill a love of learning in each of my students.
