To my new Second Graders!

Dear Second Grader (and parent),

I am just SO excited that I will be meeting you soon! We are going to have some wonderful adventures in second grade. I absolutely love my job because I get to come to school and have fun with you all every day! I am going to tell your parents about a few important days that are coming up, so write them down so you don't miss them!

Tuesday, August 14th at 4:00 pm- MEET THE TEACHER

A day when we get to meet each other for the first time, explore our classroom, and fill out some very important paper work. Please do not miss this day!

I can't wait for this day to come, I hope you are as excited as I am! Bring a smile and a spirit to learn as we get to know each other and our classroom!

Tuesday, September 11th at 6:00 PM- PARENT ORIENTATION

(Parents only please!) This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about what your child will be up to this year. I will inform you of our classroom procedures, discipline policy, important dates, and all sorts of other useful information. Please come!

Enjoy the rest of your summer and I'll see you soon!

New Year, New Grade, New ADVENTURES!

Well it's almost that time again... August has arrived and along with it is a new school year! I am so excited and beyond blessed to say that I will now be teaching second grade!!

After completely my internship in Vestavia in a second grade classroom, I fell in love with this age and the content we cover! There are so many things about second grade that I am looking forward to... one being the chance to really dig deep into the students' reading and comprehension. I can't wait to ignite a passion and love for reading in my little ones! Heres a sneak peek at the beginning of my (work-in-progress) classroom library!

Books, books, and more books!

Along with fun new exciting new journeys into reading, we were so blessed to be able to adopt the new AMSTI math program! I can't WAIT to get started!! This new program is engaging and hands-on, I just know children will leave the classroom with a LOVE for math!

Check out our awesome new manipulatives! Whoo hoo!!

Our classroom meeting area!

Needless to say, I am SO excited for this school year to start! Keep checking back for updates on our adventures in second grade!
