This is my 9th year teaching 2nd grade at St. Josaphat's and I am excited for the year to begin with
our new addition. We will all be working together to create a community of learners.
This summer I took a class on literary Ireland and will be sharing some of my experiences in Ireland
with the students. I read some great books, played tennis and spent time with my family. At the end of
the summer I took a trip to the Northwest and enjoyed the landscape while we were whale watching and
spotting bald eagles. It is such a beautiful part of the country.
This year I will be working with the other teachers, Mrs. Johnson and Miss Leberer to collaborate and
help make this a great year for all the second grade students.
The second graders will form a community of learners who are enthusiastic and responsible. They
will treat each other with respect at all times. We will work together to create an environment in which
all are welcome. As the year progresses the students will be challenged and encouraged to always do
their best work. They will evaluate their own work and will make goals to insure that they are focused
and have a goal to work towards. The second graders will support each other as they grow in their
faith with the two sacraments they will be participating in this year.
