Howdy! First of all, let me share how excited I am to be your teacher! I love spending my day with students. Every day is a new experience, and I am delighted that we will be taking this journey together.
Here are a few things about me. I love to run, play tennis and pickleball, hike, water ski, and walk my dog. I also enjoy reading, gardening, and watching birds. In other words, I like to be active, and I like to be outdoors enjoying nature.
As you can tell from the photos, dogs are an important part of my life. It's almost impossible to have a bad day with a loving pup around! Sadie is the big girl and she is considered family.
Speaking of family--nothing means more to me than my family! I have a blended family, and we are a large crew! We make family a priority, and cherish every chance we get to be together.
I like to consider our classroom a family. I believe that everyone should feel comfortable, respected, and at home. We should treat each other kindly and build an environment of trust. If you have problems, please come and talk to me and we can work on a solution together. Parents, I welcome your input and hope you too feel a part of our classroom family. I welcome notes, e-mails, and phone calls with any concerns you may have.
Well, that's just a bit about me and I look forward to learning more about each of you. Every student will have an opportunity to share a little about himself or herself.
