My classroom is filled with curious and diverse young learners who love to learn! My students love to collaborate and problem-solve as they are engaged in active learning activities.
Each day with my students brings new adventures and new experiences which we explore together.
It is my goal as a teacher to further extend the love of learning to my students so they are able to not only have successful academic careers but conquer their own personal goals and dreams.
My Project
I am committed to growing as an educator, just as I am committed to helping my students be the best that they can be while becoming inquisitive, lifelong learners. I am seeking support to achieve National Board Certification because I believe it is the next step in my professional development journey. As a teacher who holds Masters Degrees in Elementary Education and Library and Informational Science as well as county certification in Gifted and Talented Education, I am excited about this professional development opportunity which will require me to take a close look at my work in the classroom.
National Board Certification is a very rigorous, multi-year process that emphasizes careful reflection on one's teaching practice, student growth and development, and mastery of content knowledge across grade levels.
I am determined to continue to push myself personally and professionally so that my students receive the highest quality education I can possibly provide for them each and every year. I believe that achieving National Board Certification will help me to become a more effective educator and improve my practice, which will, in turn, improve student learning.
