Laura Sum- 1 Year Lead Teacher
My teaching philosophy, whether your child is one or eighteen, is for them to trust me and feel safe in my class. Each child is valued and treasured. I want to be sure I say their names correctly and know each person and their unique personality. I want my students and their parents to know that I will protect them and act fairly and in their best interest. For this one year old class in particular, I want for your children to feel safe, loved, heard, understood, and confident. There is so much to learn about communicating with others, expressing themselves, sharing with peers and trusting other adults. I will mostly be teaching your toddler that they are safe at our school and in our class. We will focus on how to treat other people and how to share, and develop communication skills. We will talk about shapes, colors, and other vocabulary that I will send home updates about, but the focus will be on developing relationships and fostering trust. We will have sensory and art projects that your child will have opportunities to experiment and learn from. Some goals for this year:
