Welcome toBack to School
Night!
Introductions• I grew up in Carlsbad.• I went to college at Sonoma State
University.• This is my 6th year of teaching. I have
been at LCM for the last 5 years.• I love teaching and I feel SO lucky to
have such an amazing job!
Living the Dolphin Way
• Do Your Best Work• Help Others Succeed• Respect Your School
Always do the right thing, even when no one is looking!
7 Habits of Happy KidsHabit 1: Be Proactive
I am a responsible person. I take initiative. I choose my actions, attitudes, and moods. I do not blame others for my wrong actions. I do the right thing without being asked, even when no one is looking.
Habit 2: Begin With the End In MindI plan ahead and set goals. I do things that have meaning and make a difference. I am an important part of my classroom and contribute to my school’s mission and
vision.
Habit 3: Put First things FirstI spend my time on things that are most important. This means I say no to things I know I should not do. I set priorities, make a schedule, and achieve my goals. I am
disciplined and organized.
Habit 4: Think Win-WinI balance courage for getting what I want with consideration for what others want. I make deposits in others’ emotional bank accounts. When conflicts arise, I look for
third alternatives. I look for ways to be a good citizen.
Habit 5: Seek First To Understand, Then To Be UnderstoodI listen to other people’s ideas and feelings. I try to see things from their viewpoints. I listen to others without interrupting. I am confident and in voicing my ideas. I look
people in the eyes when talking.
Habit 6: SynergizeI value other people’s strengths and learn from them. I work well in groups, even with people who are different from me. I seek out other people’s ideas to solve
problems because I know that by teaming with others we can create better solutions than any one of us alone. I am humble.
Habit 7: Sharpen The SawI take care of my body by eating right and exercising, and getting sleep. I spend time with family and friends. I learn in lots of ways and lots of places, not just at school. I
take time to find meaningful ways to help others.

Homework
Classroom ManagementI am a big believer in POSITIVE
reinforcement! I am always looking for students
doing the right thing! However, if a student continues to make the wrong choices after a warning, they
will have to “pull a slip.” If the behavior continues, the student will
need to go to detention and complete a reflection form.
Classroom Economy

motivation, students will be “paid” for the doing the following things:
