Mission For The Class

Personal Statement:
     I love 6th grade students, and I will be working hard to insure 
your child’s success here at Cross Timbers Middle School!
     It is my hope that your child will leave this year with increased 
reading and writing skills, and a renewed sense of purpose about the effect 
literature and expressive writing can have on each of us!


Educational Philosophy:
     A classroom where mutual respect is fostered between the teacher and 
students provides a safe climate for learning and discovery. All students 
greatly benefit from interpreting and analyzing the writer’s ideas, 
while reading and participating in literary discussions. Communicating 
special experiences and insight through speaking and writing are also a main 
focus of this course.
