Hello! My name is Mrs. Reuer and I am excited to join this online learning community! I have been teaching in an elementary classroom for 10+ years, and currently teach first grade. I love all things literacy, and am passionate about teaching English Language Arts and developing early literacy skills!

I have a Bachelor of Science in Education degree from Ashland University, and a Master of Education in Educational Leadership from American College of Education. My credentials/ licensure areas include Early Childhood Education Preschool-3rd Grade, Generalist 4th-5th Grade, Reading Kindergarten-12th Grade, and Principal Preschool-6th Grade. My recent professional training includes Comprehensive Orton-Gillingham, Core Knowledge Language Arts, and Heggerty Phonemic Awareness. I am currently enrolled in LETRS (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling).

I truly believe that establishing a strong foundation in the primary grades, especially in literacy, will set children up for success throughout their lives. While foundational academic skills are vital, they should be balanced with consideration to the full range of developmental needs, including social, emotional, physical, and mental development. In the physical classroom and online, all children should be provided with safe, welcoming learning environments and rich learning experiences.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my three children (ages 12, 10, and 5), and experiences new things with them. I also love reading and volunteering with our local youth softball/ baseball league! Thank you for viewing my profile - I look forward to learning with your child and cultivating a love of literacy, learning and growing.
