Jim Hughes - Grades 5 & 6

Foremost, I value a personal relationship with each of my students. My goal as a teacher is to create memorable experiences for students in an academically challenging, spiritually inspiring and physically involved environment that feels safe.

A principal intention in my classroom is creating a safe environment where making mistakes is acceptable and understood as part of experimentation and the learning process. A major part of a safe classroom is working together as a family, and we build family through regular team building activities.
 

In conjunction with standard school work my students are involved in many hands on activities: primitive living skills (such as: friction fire making, cordage, and primitive tool making.), nature awareness, outdoor exploration, team building, and community service to list a few.
