Mrs. Gabbard’s
Philosophy of Education, in brief
Real learning only takes place through the
process of exploration and discovery. Class time is carefully planned
to provide students with hands-on, cooperative activities that allow them to
construct and communicate knowledge in a variety of ways. Attendance
is very important. If you miss a day, you will probably be
lost! The concepts we build in 7th grade are essential
to success in future years, so do your best to be at school, pay
attention, and work hard every day.
