Educational Philosophy
My classroom is about real-world application of core subjects. I take great delight in helping students see the "so what" in math, and the "why should I care" behind literacy. I use technology in the classroom to make my students' learning even more relevant to their lives. As a part of helping students see the importance of my course content I ensure that they can see the growth that they make by providing them with rubrics to self-assess and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses so they can set good goals for themselves.
