Class Information:
Students per Class: 120
Class Description:
Geometry and Consumer Math
Position:
math teacher
Needs:
I have a very diverse population in my classes. I have special needs student and gifted placed in the same room. It becomes a challenge to keep the student that gets finished in 15 minutes doing meaningful work and get giving the time to the special needs student to get their work completed.
My Philosophy:
All students can learn, but they have different needs and speeds, interests and desires to learn. It is my challenge to try to meet the needs of all students.
