I teach 6-8 grade math and 8th grade CA and then a special class. I am trying to get the special class to be photography this year.
Position:
Teacher
Needs:
We need 10 cameras and 1 printer with a scanner.
My Philosophy:
Make learning fun and interesting and kids can and will learn anything you put in front of them. I try to get away from the copy off the board notes and leave the room kind of teaching and go more for problem solving approaches and having students tell me how to solve problems instead of me telling them how to solve problems.
