Class Description:
I teach second grade. I team teach with another second grade teacher in reading and math.
Position:
Second Grade Teacher
Needs:
I would like to have more Mac laptops to use with my class. Right now we have 20 laptops shared by 8 classrooms. Also, it would be helpful to have a document camera, LCD mounted projector and Smartboard. All of these would allow me to use technology daily and in all subject areas.
My Philosophy:
I believe that all children have a lot of potential. It is my job as the teacher to find out the best ways to educate them. I must address different learning styles in order for them to be successful. With all the advances in technology it is important for me to incorporate it into my lessons.

Employment History:
I have taught for 25 years in SAD 11. In that time I have taught early kindergarten, kindergarten, fourth grade, first grade, a multi-aged 1/2 and second grade.
Why Do I Teach?:
I have taught for 25 years. Education has changed a lot but I still enjoy helping students learn new concepts. I am amazed at the progress that they make every year.
