My Project

Someone once said, "A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination and instill a love of learning." For the past 11 years, I have been able to share my love of learning, change and adventure with hundreds of sweet little learners all over Connecticut.

This year will be a year of changes, as many of my students will enter school in a classroom for the first time ever.

This year will also be new for me as I enter a new building to begin my 12th year of teaching. I am hoping to have my classroom be filled with the basic supplies: paper, glue, dry erase markers, crayons etc. These supplies are essential to having a classroom that runs productively and smoothly!
