5th Grade - O'Rourke

Course Description

As soon as you walk into my class, you may notice it is rather noisy. Listen closely, and you will hear lots of enthusiastic discussion about the learning taking place - they are a very focused, high-achieving group that is learning to take more control of their education. Flexible seating is available so students who work better by standing, can stand at our tall standing desk, for those who need to move a little more, there are yoga ball chairs for them to move as they work. There are high expectations for my students and they meet those expectations.  I consider my classroom middle school boot camp, and I have come to lovingly call my class "#middleschoolbootcamp"!
