I believe that students need to be the leaders of the classroom. Even third graders are old enough to be held accountable and to take responsibility for their learning.
I do not believe that kids were made to sit in seats. They need to get up and move around.
Differentiated instruction is a must. I use guided reading and guided math groups to meet the individual needs of my students.
Helping a student to discover their love for reading is a privilege that I never get tired of.
School should be fun! We party in my class!
