Philosophy of Education and Grading

My Philosophy of Education

I believe that each child is unique. As an educator it is my goal to provide a safe, stimulating environment where students will be able to grow. As a teacher I act as a guide to help students search for information and knowledge to gain answers to their questions. I allow their curiosity to direct their learning using a variety of teaching methods. One of my hopes as an educator is to instill a love of learning in my students, as I share my own passion for learning with them.

Philosophy Of Grading

Library grades are based on student performance in the following areas: study and research skills, literature engaement, and library skills and organization.

Study and research skills 40%
Literature engagement, response and appreciation 40%
Knowledge of Library organization (Online catalog and Dewey Decimal System) 20%
