My goal in life is to ensure children

learn, have fun, and grow up to reach their
fullest potential. My classroom is a childcentered, play-based setting. I believe
every child learns through hands-on activities. Children learn from trial and error.
Children need time to discover and explore
on their own. Play is critical to a childs
development. While children are engaged
in play they are unaware they are learning.
All children learn in different ways. I believe
children should be permitted to learn at
their own pace, within a structured, caring
and supportive environment.
In my classroom developmentally
appropriate materials, and supplies are
available and accessible for children to
discover, manipulate and explore. My
classroom is a warm, welcoming environment offering bright colors. My classroom
provides parents and children with a sense
of safety and security. I am positive, patient, easy going and very understanding. I
believe it is important to respect and understand each childs culture, behaviors,
relationships with others, and abilities. I
assess each child and help them grow and
learn successfully. My classroom is family
friendly. I encourage parents and guardians
to visit as much as possible; to observe
their child learning and growing. Every
child needs support from their parent or
guardian. This gives the child a sense of
encouragement and pride in what they
accomplish. Children need an education
that is meaningful and beneficial. These
are the lessons I will provide for every child
who comes into my care.
