About The Teacher

   Hi. I am Shanda Barnett and I have been teaching for six years. I have 
taught several grade levels including 2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th, and 8th. I am also 
the Student Council Sponsor here at Haleyville Elementary.
  I live in Haleyville and am married to Matt Barnett. We do not have any 
children. However, I do have a puppy named Deek. He is a yorkie. He will do 
for now. :) I LOVE what I do! These kids are my life! I see them more than my 
own family! :)
   I LOVE any kind of art and try to incorporate it into my lessons when 
time allows. I also think it is important that we consider how our 
kids "work" these days . Just about everything they do consist of some sort 
of technology. I feel that it is important to incorporate ANY type of 
technology whether it be powerpoints, clips, or just sound effects to keep 
the student's attention. 
   I feel that I am very lucky to get to work at such a great school! The 
students, faculty, and principals are AWESOME! If you have a question, 
please feel free to e-mail me anytime! Thanks! :)Shanda Barnett

Mission For The Class

   I hope that by the time you finish with MY class you will not only have 
learned a lot, but will remember all of the fun times we had. I hope that 
you are a more positive person and believe in yourself!  I want to be one of 
the teachers that you will remember when you graduate. I remember the 
wonderful teachers that "stuck out" throughout MY years in school. You are 
all VERY smart and I am proud of everything you have accomplished. Just 
remember, "Whether you think you CAN, or you think you CAN'T, you are 
RIGHT!" ~HENRY FORD ....BE POSITIVE!
                                                          LOVE,
                                                        Mrs. Barnett :)
