Mr. Bone's 5th Grade Class
Hello! My name is Nicholas Bone and this is my fourth year teaching 5th grade at SCE. I am originally from South Carolina, but I have been living in the Nashville area since 2017. I graduated from Coastal Carolina University with a B.A. in Music and from Middle Tennessee State University with a M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction.
“Books are sometimes windows, offering views of worlds that may be real or imagined, familiar or strange. These windows are also sliding glass doors, and readers have only to walk through in imagination to become part of whatever world has been created or recreated by the author. When lighting conditions are just right, however, a window can also be a mirror. Literature transforms human experience and reflects it back to us, and in that reflection we can see our own lives and experiences as part of a larger human experience. Reading, then, becomes a means of self-affirmation, and readers often seek their mirrors in books.” - Dr. Rudine Sims Bishop
