I provide a student centered, highly motivating and academically challenging program for my students. I try to make the curriculum come alive with experiments, artifacts, literature, communication and technology. I encourage my students to be risk takers. This reflects a constructivist approach to learning. Often I am learning right along with them.
Students learn in different ways.
Understanding that there are multiple intelligences, I try to provide a program that allows all strengths to shine through and be appreciated. My program is often project based. This allows for many choices on the part of the students to learn and express themselves in a way that is best for them. I love what I do. My job as an educator is not a means to an end.
