Harding's Happenings
Welcome Back!
About me as an Educator
I am beyond thrilled to start my third year at Tatem Elementary! This will be my 8th year teaching and my 6th year teaching fifth grade. In the classroom I love hands on learning. I try to incorporate technology, unique projects, and team building activities (through STEM) into my everyday teaching. My main goal as your child's teacher is to be their number one supporter at school. I am constantly looking to improve and find innovative and engaging teaching techniques to try in the classroom. I stay relevant and up to date in my teaching practices by attending various workshops and connecting with top educators around the country. I'm a huge advocate of teaching digital citizenship in 5th grade. I include many technology projects throughout the year that reinforce my practice.
Class Photo Blog
Every year I create a unique blog for my current class. You will find pictures and descriptions of what we are doing in 5H. The link can be found below and also on the main page of my eBoard. The kids love it and it's a great way for parents to actually see what we are up to. Now when you ask your child what they did that day in school, they can't say "nothing" :) Just check out the blog!
Message to my Students
First let me say, I'm so excited to meet all of you. I can guarantee we will do things on the first day of school that you would never expect. I look forward to introducing you to a hands-on learning experience like no other!
I suggest you check out my eBoard, I update it daily. There is a note titled "who are you" it's your opportunity to tell me a bit about yourself. I would love to learn a few things about you before the school year starts.
See you soon!
Mrs. Harding
