The Station

All Aboard!

      The Education Station is a place where you can board and take off onto a wonderful world of literacy learning! The purpose of this blog is for personal reflection on my growing knowledge of teaching young children! I have also created a "mock" Parent's Cabin page to practice communicating with my future families. I will be posting some great websites on my Resources page as I discover more and more amazing stuff online for teachers. Through my program, my philosophy and beliefs on educating young children have changed and expanded. Throughout the rest of my education, I know my philosophy and beliefs on what makes an effective teacher will keep growing and growing. Through this blog, I will highlight on important topics that I learn and give great examples and links to helpful websites. This is going to be a place of ongoing learning about the wonderful activities and approaches that we can take towards teaching our students to read and write. The ultimate goal of literacy instruction is to instill a genuine and lasting love of reading and writing for students of all ages. Teaching is one of the most fulfilling and rewarding jobs a person can choose for their life. I believe in the idea of a Community of Learners. It is my goal to provide students a safe and caring environment where they feel cared for, encouraged, and supported each and every day. I strive for students to one day say that I was the reason they learned to love school. What an impact we can make on the life of a child! So grab a seat and get ready to nosedive into the wonderful world of literacy! All aboard!
