I am a very lucky lady to have such a diverse classroom of students. They are eager to learn new things, no matter what their background or ability level. After teaching 3rd grade for several years, I am moving up to 5th! This year I am in charge of the majority of the Reading instruction for all the 5th graders. I am looking forward to this new challenge and group of kiddos. I teach Reading using a variety of methods including small group instruction, games, independent and partner work, and technology elements, so that each of my students can find an entry point to our instruction. I want each and everyone of them to value their learning and get the most out of each day! I am so happy to have each and every one of them in my room this year!
