Currently, I am teaching my 20th year in first grade. Clearly, I love first grade...the lightbulb moments, the excitement to learn, the sweet, precious kiddos who love life. What a gift to spend my days with firsties.
Since I was a little girl, I have believed teaching is a calling. A job in which I have been called to do and will do to my best ability. Children learn through love and affection while being taught using effective instruction. My goal is to fuse both and teach children to love learning and each other.
