I love teaching and learning! Sharing ideas and learning from others is one of my very favorite things to do. I love the connections you make on TpT. This is a wonderful place to grow together!
I believe in project based learning and learning by doing. I also believe in setting high expectations and believing that my students can reach these goals. I also believe that each child is smart in a multitude of ways, and it is my job to find the best way for each chid to show what they know. I also feel that children should be stretched in all areas of intelligence so that they can grow as a person and as a learner.
