As a teacher, the commitment to creating a welcoming and safe environment is paramount. Learning takes place when students feel safe to speak, listen, go out of their comfort zone, and express themselves. With that foundation, I aspire to facilitate learning by sparking curiosity, inspiring creativity, and providing support for the individual needs of students. Creating a learning community comes with the understanding that each student will have unique strengths and learning needs, which is why I believe communication with students and their families is key to ensuring that there is advocacy for each student.

Abstract concepts are just that, abstract. I would love to collect visuals to refer back to throughout the year that will aid in the understanding of harder to grasp ideas. These are also great starting points to talk about literary concepts.

A dedicated place for students to read, take a small break, or work independently. I envision that the library will be nested between comfortable seating.

I love the idea of flexible seating and I wonder how I will be able to offer options to students (without taking out a loan) to relax and get lost in during reading time.

Circle times like morning circle, restorative circles, and end of the day circle will be apart of my classroom management plan. It will add structure to the day, promote community through daily sharing, and be a space for conflict resolutions.
