Classroom Expectations and Culture

Students in this class are expected to reach their maximum potential and strive for excellence.  My class motto is "Be the change you wish to see in the world." - Gandhi

Students are expected to work their hardest, communicate and advocate for themselves.  Furthermore, the classroom culture is one that embraces diversity, individual uniqueness, laughter and acceptance.  Students are encouraged to make mistakes and learn from them, help one another when they are in need and ask questions when they need help.  It is my goal that each child leaves fifth grade ready to excel in middle school and rise above any challenge that is thrown their way.

There can be a heavy homework load if students do not use their time wisely in class.  I stress time management and organization as those are two life skills that are necessary to be successful in all aspects of life.  If a student is falling behind, they need to be self-advocates and communicate with me to devise a plan that will help them stay on track for success.

Although this may seem intense, class is fun and student centered.  I will do everything in my power to ensure each student is successful and prepared for their future academic endeavors.
