I'm Mrs. Baker. I teach first grade at Sleepy Hollow Elementary School. As an educator, I try to establish a firm foundation during this critical state in the lives of first graders. Having the very highest expectations for each learner in the classroom is a priority with me. My practical experience and master's degree in Elementary Education have taught me that successful learning begins very early.
Every child has the potential to develop effective skills and strategies.
Approaches may differ, but the goal is to become lifelong learners. Being a first grade teacher is such a rewarding experience. The students are eager to learn new and exciting things each day and are ready to give what you expect from them. It's good to see how pleased students are when their hard works brings new understanding.
