My
name is Janet Arredondo and I am a 4th grade teacher at John H. Shary
Elementary. My philosophy for learning is that each child is unique, and
each child learns in a different way. One of my jobs as a teacher is to
help a child discover his or her individuality and work alongside with
them to maximize it. I believe in hands-on experiences, learning
creatively, and learning through play. It is my goal to create a
community of learners who are committed to working hard and having
fun. I want students to leave my classroom feeling confident that they
can apply what they've learned in school to real-life situations. I want
my students to feel challenged and to have an enhanced passion for
learning.
I strongly believe
that collaboration, cooperation, and open communication between home and
school are keys to building a strong foundation for a successful school
year. So, please feel free to contact me at any time.
