Welcome to Room A-1
Welcome to second grade!! I am looking forward to another new school year! This will be my seventh year teaching and my third year here at LPSSA. I love being a part of this wonderful school family!
Please be sure to explore my teacher page in order to stay up-to-date with homework assignments, important dates, and newsletters. Spelling words, sight words, and interactive slides can be found in the file library. Information will updated weekly.
This year we will continue working hard with our Benchmark Universe language arts adoption, Lucy Calkins writing workshop, and Engage New York math curriculum. These will provide a hands-on learning experience for our scholars. Our curriculum, combined with our daily five reading program, will enhance our student centered learning environment. Your children will be exposed to the latest NGSS science standards through hands-on activities and experiments, as well as an interactive notebook. They will experience inquiry based lessons that engage and challenge them. Students will receive rich Art lessons, where they will study famous artists and enhance their creative skills. They will also deepen their understanding of our wonderful country through a patriotic performance, as well as a Great American Hero report and presentation.
As a second grade teacher, I ensure that all of my students receive a welcoming, safe, and engaging environment to work and learn that allows each student to feel successful. We focus on collaboration and building community, as our classroom is a place of exploration and acceptance.
I look forward to building strong relationships with each of you!
