Hello, my name is Mrs. Laing-Taylor and I will be your child's Intensive Reading Teacher Room # 305. 

About Me

I have been in education for 7 years now, particularly in ELA/Intensive Reading for 4. I am originally from the Bahamas and I enjoy music art, nature (the sky in particular and culture. 

Growth Mindset

What is growth Mindset? Well it starts with changing the way we think, which results in changing our current pathway to success.

Here is our Class Motto this year:

Growth Mindset Motto

1. I know everything is difficult before it is easy.

2. I know my mistakes are learning experiences.

3. I know there lies great power in using the word "YET"

4. I know I can train my brain to accomplish great things.

5. I will not give up until I am proud of what I am done.
