Think Outside the Box Thursdays: A Fun, Flexible Thinking Game
It's Thursday--time to think! Come chat and play a getting-to know-you-game that requires you to think outside the box. Be ready to search, listen, think, share, and laugh together as we get to know one another.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Teaching is my passion! I love nurturing the love for reading, the love for writing, the love for learning. I have been teaching for 25 years in the elementary school setting. I have been a classroom teacher, literacy coach, and am currently a licensed Reading Specialist. I am also a licensed ESL teacher and have had the amazing experience of teaching in a diverse school nicknamed, “Where the World Goes to School”. I continue to teach English Language Learners in my reading classroom, as well as online.
My students describe me as patient, caring, inspiring, and fun. I strive to inspire my learners to grow and learn each day. Having a positive growth mindset is key!
I would love to share my passion for learning with your child. I invite your child to join me for a variety of literacy classes. Whether they are an emerging reader needing to build their foundational skills; a fluent reader ready to dig deeper and share their thinking with others; an aspiring writer ready to collect ideas for future pieces; or perhaps a hesitant writer who just needs a little inspiration and encouragement, I would love to welcome them to my classroom. My two pups would love to invite them as well. Let's grow together!Reviews
