About The Teacher
Hello! My name is Lori Coffin. I am a Norfolk Native and proud to say that I received my entire K-12 education right here in "Panther Land"! After living and teaching in Iowa and Oklahoma, I am thrilled to return to my hometown and be giving back to the district and community that raised me and taught me that all should have the opportunity to "polish" their strengths and rise above their weaknesses! This will be my 14th year teaching. I taught third grade in Onawa,Iowa; first grade and transitional first grade in Grove, Oklahoma; third grade at Northern Hills Elementary until it closed and now the 2012- 2013 school year will mark my third year teaching third grade at Grant Elementary School!

Mission Label:


Mission
My goal each school year is to have every child walk out of my castle themed classroom in May feeling successful, confident, and excited to continue learning in a 21st Century society! Therefore, each child in my classroom will be challenged to work consistently at their potential and risk going beyond to achieve greater success! In order to achieve this, I believe in the need to instill pride in tomorrow's leaders. With a sense of self worth and respect, children will learn, and thus succeed! I believe a successful teacher is one who incorporates her students' personal strengths and interests into all areas of learning. I also believe in an old Chinese proverb that states, "I hear, and I forget. I see, and I remember. I DO, AND I UNDERSTAND!" The more children are actively involved in learning, the more interest, understanding, and retention will take place!
