Welcome to my class page! You can learn more about me here.

Throughout the year, I incorporate real life examples, technology, interactive assessments, and group work in my lesson plans to create engaging and well-rounded learning experiences for my second graders. These techniques are enhanced by my continuous use of the Superkids guided reading program, math manipulative and centers, current events, and Lab Learners. My philosophy is to create an atmosphere which motivates students, supports individual learning styles, and focuses on Catholic identity. As a proud practicing Catholic, I aim to foster my students’ relationship with God, in preparation for the spiritual sacrament of Reconciliation.
