Welcome to our 2022-2023 class website. I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome you to our new school year and also to welcome Mrs. Durrence to our team. We are going to have an outstanding year!
This year I will team teach with Mrs. Quinlin. I will teach Math and Science, while Mrs. Quiinlin will teach ELA and Writing. We will both teach Social Studies to our home room. Mrs. Durrence is the 5th grade co-teacher. Writing will be completed daily across the curriculum.
Approximately 80% of the work completed in our classroom this year will be completed on the iPad. We will use Canvas as our learning platform for the majority of our assignments. Students will save the majority of their work to their google drive and they will use different apps like Animoto and imovie to complete performance tasks and project based learning (PBL) tasks. This will allow students to show their level of understanding for the standards we are working on. We will also use flipgrid to help meet our speaking/listening standards as well as to generate class discussions.
Students WILL have homework daily (Monday through Thursday) beginning the first week of school. Homework will either be digital (Study Island) or worksheets. I will post the homework on our class Canvas course as well as on my lesson plans. Like last year, I will have a modified flipped classroom.
Throughout this site, you will find valuable information and aides that will help your child grow academically to their fullest. I encourage you to visit the site regularly as it will be updated frequently.
Sub-pages for the home tab will include our daily schedule, upcoming events (mark your calendar), 3 R's, School Supply List, and other pertinent information.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me by calling FLE and leaving a message (912-368-3595) or via email at [email protected]

I look forward to a fantastic year of learning and growing with your child.
