Classroom Model





The focus on the classroom Model will be on the levels of Kindergarten all the way to Eight grade on Special Education.  The classroom will be incorporating math and writing skills for well-rounded learning; not forgetting to bring the importance of nature in the school where children will be able to take care of a plant through the school year, as well as the therapy dog that will be in the classroom a few times a week.
This classroom will have children with exceptionally (ADHD, Dyslexia, OCD), and other students like ELL and honor students.  It will be a classroom with a combination of abilities and skills like increase problem solving, developing independent reading, team players, Global Citizens.  There are no perfect teachers or perfect students; however, with the teamwork of a great team of professionals we can create a lifetime learning foundation to the students and impact the community that we live in.
