Welcome to Third Grade! I'm so happy to be here and I hope you are too!
This is my 34th year of teaching and my 32nd year at Fir Grove. I have taught in LRC, Title 1, 1st Grade, 4th Grade, 5th Grade and now Third Grade.
I LOVE to read and I LOVE encouraging students to read. Check out my Battle of the Books information.
I also love Science and Math. Actually, I just plain LOVE learning!
I hope that your third grade year is the best year ever. I look forward to learning and growing with all of you!
