Professional development

My Students

Each day is a new fun-filled day in our 3rd-grade classroom. Not one day is the same as the last, just as not one child is the same as the next. I believe everyone has a different way of learning. I love to provide my students with many different tools, resources, and creative learning techniques so they can be successful. These students love to learn through music and movement. I would love to attend a workshop to help bring learning to the next level and bring more excitement to my classroom.

My Project

I am requesting funds to attend the Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta, GA to help give my partner teacher and myself new ideas to make teaching fun!

Ron Clark Academy is well-known for their innovated teaching styles and has opened their doors for teaching and training to provide ways to learn without using boring worksheets.

My goal is to teach in ways that promote creativity, innovation, wonder, joy, and a passion for learning. Ron Clark Academy will help us achieve these goals and allow us to come back to our school and inspire academic excellence, leadership, collaboration, and a world-class education for our students.
