Mr. Touchet is excited to start his 11th year teaching and first year as a 5th grade instructor.

 

Mr. Touchet has been a Texas public educator since 1995. He started out as a Kindergarten teacher in Granger ISD. Through a twist of fate, Mr. Touchet was offered the Kindergarten - 12th grade music teacher position half way through the school year which he held for the next four years. During this time he was able to experience and observe student learning for all grade levels through elementary music and 6th - 12th grade band programs. Mr. Touchet then decided to focus on the elementary students and accepted the K-5th grade music position here at Gattis in 2000.

 

Now Mr. Touchet will be helping Gattis Elementary 5th grade students through their learning adventure focusing on Language Arts and Social Studies. Through the use of thematic units, Mr. Touchet hopes to work with the rest of the 5th grade team to create a learning environment that will combine all disciplines in a real-world learning environment.
