Class Description:
I have nine boys and nine girls. We do have some computers in the classroom. We have learned to share and work with what we have.
Position:
Teacher
Needs:
Digital Cameras (6): Cameras will allow my students to take their learning to another level. The cameras will be used to take pictures of things in nature whereas time will alter. They will be able make booklets and other projects that will promote learning.
My Philosophy:
This is what I believe: “I've come to the frightening conclusioin that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It's my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or de-humanized.” -Dr.Haim Ginott
