Philosophy of Education

Children have a special sense of wonder that inspires me. Children have a sense of
adventure that drives them to learn more and more every single day. Each child is unique
and special in their own way. It is my job as an educator to recognize the uniqueness of
each of my students and to help them grow.

A good education is some thing every child has a right to. Each child is different and has
their own individual educational needs that must be recognized and met. It is my job as a
teacher to prepare children and educate them to the best of my ability.

Education is the most important thing a child can have. A good education creates a well
rounded, knowledgeable child, and prepares them for their future as both a student and as
a member of society.

My classroom will always be a developmentally appropriate environment that is tailored


to the cognitive, social-emotional, and physical needs of my students. It is my belief that
children who become individual learners are the most successful students. High quality
educators strive to help students become individuals who like to take control of their
education and embrace it.

It is not a teacher’s job to punish children, but to talk to the child face-to-face, work
through the problem, and use restorative practices. Indirect guidance will be used in the
classroom to help children make appropriate choices during both free time and structured
time.

Diversity will be a part of the classroom, and will be displayed and experienced in a
variety of ways. Multiple languages and cultures will be respresented and experienced in
a variety of ways, including but not limited to; books, toys, classroom posters, class
projects, and educational themes.

Parent involvement is key to any child’s education. Children whose parents stay up to
date with what their children are doing in the classroom, can ask their child what they did
that day and start a conversation. This helps the children to incorporate what they learned
in the classroom, at home. A child whose parents are involved get the most out of their
education.
