About The Teacher
My name is Kristin Samples and this is my seventh year of teaching. I have been at Highland City for the duration of my teaching career and I feel at home. This is an amazing school! My first year of teaching was in 5th grade and the remainder of my time has been spent as a 4th grade teacher. I have been married for 8 years to my husband Alan. I have a son named Layne and he is 2 1/2 years old. He was born on my 6 year wedding anniversary. He has brought so much joy to my life. It is amazing to watch him grow everyday. About the Intern: My name is Laura Harmon and I am an intern from Southeastern University in Lakeland. I am originally from Fort Myers, where I grew up as the second of five children. I have spent my life around kids, and I am so excited to be working with your students this semseter.

Mission Label:


Mission
Our class is called Victory Lane. The mission for our class is to work together and become fifth graders by the end of the year. We are racing toward the finish line!!! Our class has a check book system that allows them to earn money for good choices, doing their jobs, and completing all of their assignments. At the end of each nine week period the students will get a chance to spend their money in the classroom store. The checkbook system is a great system because the students realize that if they do not follow the 4 B's and make good choices they will lose money. They also learn the responsibility of saving money and budgeting their checkbooks.
