I have always taught at a Title 1 school with the majority of my students being bilingual and a large population of students with special needs.
Teaching style
I teach using a lot of technology including slideshows for students to reference. My students are on technology part of the time but I really believe in trying to implement paper/pencil experiences as well to keep them grounded, especially in literacy. Reading an actual book is a priceless skill.
I believe in creating strong relationships with students as well in setting strong boundaries. I also believe in teaching SEL skills throughout the year and incorporating these into various parts of the day.
I am constantly striving to continue learning myself in order to best support my students and create experiences for them that are rooted in research and best practices.
