Positive Expectations
for
Mr. McAdam's
7th Grade Math Classes
All Students have the ability to learn and with my encouragement, instruction, and assistance, he or she will be successful in math.
Each student will bring their own unique style to the classroom and enhance the experience of all students by allowing their personality to unfold throughout the year.
The success of my classroom depends on the confidence that each students brings with them, it is my privilege to instill that confidence into each and every student who I am lucky enough to inspire.
No student has the right to believe that anyone else is smarter than they are and the goal of my teaching is to prove that to each and every student who passes through my life and my classroom.
My goal is to guide my students toward their potential, in any endeavor they choose to seek in their lives, and my responsibilty is to see that each of them fulfill as much of that potential that is humanly possible in the one year that I can affect their lives.
My students are waiting for me to show them why they want to learn and it is my job to teach them what they need to know, but it is my responsibility to also teach them what THEY WANT to learn.
