mike. terranova65@ gmail. com / _619- 907- 9009 PROFESSIONAL GOAL/INSTRUCTIONAL PURPOSE: Whether we are working in our classroom, extending our learning within the community, or interacting and engaging with our families, my goal is to provide my students with engaging, equitable, and grade-level appropriate instruction. The purpose of my instruction is to support my students, helping them understand the importance of their presence at school every day, as this is vital for their future successes. I want my students to discover and embrace their purpose in life. I will encourage them to use their voice to express themselves, as well as remind them that others want to hear what they have to share. My passion is to instill my students with the joy of learning, but, most importantly, an overall sense of feeling safe and accepted within our collaborative educational environment.
