Shell Lake Primary School
Hometown:
Shell Lake, WI
Class Information:
Room Number: 1417
Students per Class: 17
Class Description:
Many of my children are from poverty-stricken homes. They have so many needs other than academics. I eat with my children, play with my children, and spend much one on one time with them. I use the Daily Five Math and Reading.
Position:
Second Grade Teacher
Needs:
iPads-We have one computer lab that is also used for library, GT, and EC. Our computers are left over from the 3-12 school. Many of our students do not have computers in their homes and can only get into our lab once a week. Therefore, they will be behind in their technology knowledge.
My Philosophy:
Make each of my students the best that they can be! Be a VERY good listener.
