Kindergarten is a milestone for students and their parents. My goal is to help students develop a love for learning. Through hands-on experiences students gain confidence in their own abilities, developing a new found sense of accomplishment and independence. I believe there are keys to kindergarten which enable all children to become successful students. Working with parents, together we can ensure that each child has a productive and rewarding year. MRS. GREENE'S KINDERGARTEN KEYS Learning is a joyful experience! Students feel their classroom is a loving, safe environment. Learning is hands-on and meaningful for students. Focus is on individual growth and development. Teachers and parents maintain high expectations for all students. Students practice in order to improve in any subject area. Students are expected to do their best. Students are responsible for their words and actions. Teachers and parents guide students to make good choices. Open communication exists between parents and teachers throughout the year. The classroom is a community of learners where students, parents and teachers support one another and celebrate success.ACTIVE LEARNING LEADS TO COMPREHENSION: I hear, and I forget.I see, and I remember.I do, and I understand. ~Chinese ProverbSAID CHRISTOPHER ROBIN TO POOH: "Promise me you'll always remember:You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."
