17 years teaching experience mostly in Primary K-3
I try to involve not only the students in making meaning of what they need to know but the family as well. I am working at a Paideia school . We pride ourselves on being able to mentor and guide students and cut back on the sage on the stage syndrome. There is still direct teaching but children are given time to play around with what they are learning.
