Hi! Welcome to my 6th grade MATH class. I am so excited that you are a part of our school this year and will have me as your Math teacher! May I inspire you to explore different ways to solve problems! I want you to feel safe in my classroom to make mistakes. 

Over the course of my 19 years of serving as a public school educator, I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd grade, 4th grade, and 6th grade in Massachusetts, Illinois, and North Carolina.  This is my 2nd year at William Lenoir Middle and my 8th year teaching 6th grade.

On a more personal note,  I have been married to my best friend, Bob, for over 30 years. We have three married sons and seven grandchildren. I enjoy traveling, baking, and listening to music. 

If you are interested in finding out more about the curriculum that we use to shape our content, you can go to the website for the North Carolina Standard Course of Study. This will take you directly to the Math curriculum.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me using my school email address: rcopeland@caldwellschools.com.
