Welcome to my 3rd grade classroom
Hello everyone! My name is Velvet Clayton and I am a Third grade Reading and Science teacher here at C.G Credle Elementary School.

My Teaching Philosophy
My beliefs on teaching are short and simple- Everyone Can. I believe that if someone is willing to do something or learn or grow then everyone can accomplish, everyone can succeed, everyone can grow. It is my philosophy that what students are exposed to and develop when they're younger can have an enormous impact on the rest of their lives and it is my mission to instill in my students the belief that they too can do anything they set their mind to, and with my help I hope to guide them along that path.
Have Fun!
