Meet Mrs. Watts
I have been teaching 5th grade at Calhoun Elementary since 2006.  I believe that students learn best when they have opportunities to discover the meaning of concepts and draw conclusions in a safe environment in which they feel comfortable making mistakes.  Before teaching, I worked for 12 years as an Exercise Physiologist in Cardiac Rehab.  I am married to Tim Watts, and we have a son, Chase Watts, who attends Calhoun High School, and two Chihuahuas, Maria and Cocoa.

Class Introduction
In my class, we will be learning math, science, and social studies.  In math, we will be multiplying and dividing decimals and fractions and finding the area of triangles, parallelograms, and circles, among many other concepts.  Learning is accomplished through learning tasks, such as discovering the relationship between the diameter of a circle and its circumference, and performance tasks, such as finding the cost of a border for a circular garden.  In science, we will be learning about Georgia landforms, matter, microorganisms, and genetics through scientific inquiry.  In social studies, we will be learning about economics, geography, and history from civil war to the present.
