Behavior Think Sheet
When students misbehave, it is important for them to think about and understand what they did wrong. More importantly, to follow their actions with consequences, students should consider what they should have done instead. After an incident, a child can complete this think sheet with 3 columns: What I did, Why it was wrong, and What should I have done. Then this sheet can be filed by the teacher or sent home for a parent signature. Hopefully, this will encourage more thoughtful and positive

Experience
Kids make me laugh!
Teaching style
My students enjoy hands-on learning the most. Promoting process art, using Choice boards, encouraging student voice and student choice, incorporating technology such as iPads and the Smartboard keeps little ones engaged and excited about learning. I love a pop of color as an eye-opener all over the classroom without being overly-stimulating. Each year brings new creatures for studying from tadpoles, mealworms, and caterpillars to guinea pigs and hermit crabs. I believe in developing the whole child and finding the gift in all of us. I hope to make lasting memories for my students as we support each other through learning, laughing and whatever comes our way!
