Welcome to

I love to teach Kindergarten!
Kindergarten children are so amazing. They are excited about learning, eager to try new things,
creative, kind, funny and best of all they
tend to love their Kindergarten teacher. My biggest job as a Kindergarten
teacher is to make all of my students love school.
I am a faithful follower of the Responsive Classroom. If you were to enter my room at the start of each class you would catch us at a greeting, share and fun, motivating activity. We have an amazing Emergent Reading program in Kindergarten. We follow the Everyday Math program and have a great hands on Science curriculum. We also do month long author and illustrator studies. I teach basic sign language and above all else I try to foster positive self esteem, team work and cooperation. My classroom is typically a very busy, active and hands on learning environment. I welcome and encourage parent volunteers.

I love to tie literature into all areas of our kindergarten curriculum. Below are some of my favorite author links.
Jan Brett Laura Numeroff Dr. Seuss Eric Carle
The students are very proud of their Eric Carle word wall. This was our culminating activity for our Eric Carle author study. We were very lucky to have a visit from Tracey Campbell Pearson this winter. The students enjoyed making their own Bob. Enjoy our pictures below.
