Leah's Learning

I am a sixth year teacher in Virginia. I taught for three years in third grade, and am on my second year in sixth grade at the same elementary school. I have also been a daycare teacher and tutor!

I believe in emphasizing the relationships children have with themselves, reading, and others. Students who love to read, succeed! All forms of reading count as reading, and have value.

I have a Bachelor's from Franklin and Marshall College in Animal Behavior, as my first career was working with animals. I received my educational training from Moravian College.

I am a 35 year old lifelong animal lover! I have had cats, dogs, and horses as well as many smaller creatures throughout my life. I love to cook, read, and travel. My reading preferences include dystopians, poetry, and nonfiction that relates to biological sciences and World War II.
