The 2011-2012 school year will be my eighth year of teaching. I have
previously taught first grade for five years and second grade for two
years. First grade is my love! Teaching children reading, writing, and math
brings me so much excitement and joy. I love to see a child develop from a
struggling reader into a fluent reader that has developed a love of books. I
promise to work hard to help your child develop the skills needed to be
successful for the rest of their educational career. I want each child in my
classroom to experience success in an environment of mutual respect and
encouragement. I want each child to feel able to take risks and try new
things and not feel afraid or embarrassed. I will spend a lot of time trying
to develop good character by using the magic triad, eight expectations, and
the life principles. I will also use every means available to help your
child achieve academic success. Parent involvement is a major key in the
success your child will experience this year. I strongly encourage parents
to work with your child at home, and please know that you are always welcome
in our classroom.
Outside of the school day, I attend graduate school at UCO where I am
working on a masters in reading. If I am not at school, or going to
school, I eagerly go home to my husband Ryan, my son Trenton, and my
daughter Taryn. I have been married to my husband Ryan for nine years. Ryan
is a physical therapist in Mustang at Valir Physical Therapy. Ryan and I
love to spend time playing with Trenton & Taryn and watching them learn new
things. We also enjoy spending time at the lake, working in our garden,
riding our Harley, eating out, going to church, and hanging out with our
family and friends.
