The Mission Statement The mission of this class is to instill each of my students with the confidence they need to suceed in learning. Students will be challenged in this class as I strive to stretch their understandning and introduce abstract thinking. I will consistently be asking students for their ideas and input to help them create their own opinions and have confidence in their own ideas.

Students will have the oppurntunity to participate in many creative projects. My goal is to give guidlines and let them do the rest. Ultimately, I wish to have students leave my class with the skills of "out-of-the box" thinking and problem solving that will prepare them to compete in an ever evolving world. I will not only be their teacher but I will be their friend. All children learn differently and my approach may be different with each child to fit their learning style. I believe any student can succeed, they just need someone to believe in them.

If we teachers and parents can instill a love of learning within them and fuse that with the confidence in their own knowledge, we will have done them a great service that will help sustain them for the rest of their lives. These kids are the future leaders of our world and I intend to treat them that way.
