Having a good rapport

 I always want to have a good rapport with my kiddos! Ask your parents or guardians to help you access the internet to see the meaning for this word.  If you watched the Ted talk from a couple weeks back you would have heard the woman speaking about how "A child doesn't learn from someone they don't like". Having a good relationship with each of my kiddos is very important to me because I want to watch them succeed in life.  This year I am going to make it my mission to do 3 things with each individual student to build a good relationship.  1. I will greet every child in our own way with a secret handshake or a dance party or a high-five. I will let the student choose what they would like to do. 2. I will make school a learning time but also have small breaks for when we are getting tired or overwhelmed.  3. I will send each child home with good attitudes and small blessings as I want them to be excited for school each and every day.

I want each and every one of you to succeed in life and accomplish your dreams.       I tend to fall in love with what I know a person can be. If I push you extra hard on assignments it is because I know you can do it. I know you have a brain and you know how to use it. I strive to do my best as your teacher ev...

Get in the know with technology

                                                             Hello Parents & Students!      I hope everyone is having a great day and a great week so far. Today I want to touch base on the technology we will be using within this class! We will be using chrome-books to help us out! Our chrome-books are very important, this is how we do some of our projects and how we turn in some of our work. Chrome-books are easy to use and if you ever have a question please feel free to ask me how to do something! Our chrome-books will help us prepare assignments and help us with research!      We will be using our technology 40% of the time but the rest of the time will be hands on!
