Hello! My name is Melissa Weiner. I am the Reading Specialist here at
Greenbrook Elementary School. I work with students in Grades 3-5. This is
my second year at Greenbrook and I'm so excited to be a member of the
Greenbrook Gator team! I've been teaching for ten years. I received my
Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from Illinois State University. I
went on to complete a Master's Degree at National-Louis University in the
Reading Specialist program. When I'm not shaping young minds through
Literacy, I absolutely love to dance. I've taken Ballet, Tap,and Hip-Hop
classes. I also enjoy baseball games (Go White Sox!), live theatre,
cooking, shopping, and of course, reading! I'm looking forward to a great
year at Greenbrook with a fabulous bunch of students.
My mission for the class is to motivate my students to reach their
potential as successful readers. I will use my training and past
experiences as a teacher to effectively communicate knowledge of the
concepts, understandings, and skills associated with literacy learning to my
students. Furthermore, I will develop instructional methods that follow
local curriculum and state goals in classroom instruction. I will focus on
many of the important aspects of Literacy learning leading up to student
success.
