Teaching Philosophy
It is crucial to recognize every child's unique learning style, so that I can best instruct to that child's abilities. It is my pursuit to find your child's strengths and use them to build their confidence; and thereby giving them a tool to overcome their weaknesses. I believe it is important to build a good relationship with each child in my class. For if a child doesn't believe I care about them, they will not learn for me. Most importantly, I believe that these are two of the most important years in a child's educational development. During this time, we can still incorporate play while learning. I have the opportunity to make these years fun and let them enjoy being a child while they prepare for the next step in their education.
As a class, our goal is to prepare for Kindergarten. The children will reach these goals with daily activities such as Circle Time to encourage listening skills, Center Time to encourage sharing and following directions, recess and group games to encourage gross motor skills. Combining these daily goals with monthly goals such a letters, numbers and words of the week into fun units will surely have your child ready for kindergarten.
I strive to have an open relationship with all of my parents. Please feel free to come to me with ANY concerns or questions you may ever have. I am here for you as well as your child.
