Hello! As a second year teacher, I could not be happier with my choice of career. There is not a single day in my life that I don't want to go to work. My classroom is the most loving place, and with this mentality, each of us are growing at a wonderful pace academically and in our character. I believe in the power of choice, especially with how tasks are done, and I take special time to make sure each of my students is being adapted to. We all have the ability to learn, we just learn in different ways. It is my job to help the students see potential in themselves, to be confident in their work, and to always push for more curiosity in the world. I utilize technology quite frequently, and research has been one of our very favorite tasks. There is never a day without laughter, questions, and that spark to keep on asking, why?
