Students will be asked to do an act of kindness for a member of their family after the class ends.Class Experience
Self-Control Snake, Listening Lion, Sharing Sloth, Kind Kangaroo and I will demonstrate skills, have interactive activities, games and lead discussions helping students understand and develop four important social skills. Stuffed animals are involved because I believe kids of all ages enjoy them, however, activities will be geared to this age group. Social emotional learning helps children move from lower level to higher level thinking leading to more academic success and life outcomes. I have a masters in education/school counseling with over thirty years experience. I love interacting with students so have your child bring their favorite stuffed animal and join me as we have fun and learn. No prior experience or knowledge required.#superstar

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have a masters degree in education/school counseling. I have been in education for over 30 years working at all levels. I started in middle school which I loved but then was asked to go to various elementary schools. I was a little skeptical but then found I loved that level also. Finally I was asked to start some programs at the high schools. Would I be able to enjoy and have great rapport with them? Yes, loved that level too, I just love working with kids of all ages! I want students to be successful learners. Research has established that social and emotional (SEL) skills play an important role in having success in school and in life. It has even been shown that students with good SEL skills score better on tests. It is my passion and mission to help students become healthy learners and that will be the goal of the classes I teach.
I like to be outside gardening, hiking, and playing with my grandkids. I look forward to many happy and rewarding experiences with my future students.
