Support Mrs. Burns' classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
I am the proud teacher of 20 kindergarten students in Arkansas. My students are from a variety of language backgrounds and socioeconomic groups. But, as you walk into my classroom...we are a family! By spending time to learn about each other and our own cultures, we grow in our understanding of the world around us. We are a K-4 elementary school that is busting at the seams. Our curriculum is completely focused on the needs of each individual student. Reading, writing, and math curriculum is designed to follow a "workshop" design. Students gain new strategies for learning, try them out with hands-on learning, and share information with peers many times each day. The students love to talk about the things they have learned and will undoubtedly be better prepared to enter 1st grade! I like to describe my classroom as "organized chaos" with something exciting always going on! Always learning...always having fun!
