I have loved teaching for over 30 years. I have been a primary teacher for most of my career and love working with children. I believe that children are the best part of teaching. I have a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown. Outside of school, I live in Richland with my husband. I have two married daughters.  One of them is a teacher too!  I am also a proud grandma!

Hello

Just wanted to check in and hope you are all well.  I want to tell you that I miss working with all of your students.
Give them a hug from me and tell them I am reading while we are home and hope they are too.  

March 23 to 27

Hi Students and Parents:
Hope you are all well,  I miss you.
 
Try to keep yourselves busy. Try to read different genres of books, biographies, realistic fiction and fantasy.  Maybe read about a sports hero since sporting events are cancelled.  I have been rereading some of my favorite books at home too. Be sure to keep up on your math facts and maybe help measuring by cooking something with your moms.
 
You can continue to use the websites we use with your passwords found in your agendas.  Remember, First in Math is a great resource.  Also,use Freckle and espark which we use in the classroom.
Here are some others you may look up.
