Bio

My name is Cristina Andrews. Students learn best through oral development that leads to reading development. Think pair share and interacting with others leads to learning. I believe in getting to know the student and treat everyone equally. I would have positive reinforcement and lift everyones faces up with enthusiasm. I would include a lot of music and movement in my lessons. My goal is to build a relationship with my students and see how to best help them improve in their struggles. Students should be critical thinkers and be creative in their learning through play and discovery. I am determined to never give up and will make sure to commit to students succeeding in their growth. I will make sure to have a positive relationship with students. I will get to know them on their levels so that they feel included all the time with equality.
