One of the many uses of SmartBoards in the classroom.

This is a website with other teachers blogs and classroom pages that I find helpful sometimes.

Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is providing the children with a safe and comfortable learning environment where they will be most productive. I believe that it is important to make sure the children feel safe in the classroom they are in. I try to make my classroom more "homey" and themed as much as possible to give the kids a relaxed feel and put them more at ease.
