All About Me
I am beginning my 10th year of teaching for Andover schools. My undergraduate degree is from Bethany College, and my master’s is from Wichita State University. I am a second generation educator and absolutely have a passion for teaching. I not only teach language arts, but I am also the 8th grade girls’ basketball coach for ACMS! My spare time is filled with family!!! My husband and I have two boys and a dog; who all keep us on our toes! I also love the three R’s; running, reading and raising my boys!!
Language Arts FYI
Sixth grade language arts is a block class that meets all year. The students will have language arts for a 90 minute block everyday in order to integrate reading and writing.
Topics covered during the year:
The Writing Process (Six-trait review)
Narrative, Expository, Persuasive and Technical Text
Six Comprehension Habits
Independent Reading Plans
Puncuation/Grammar
Research
Summarizing
Word Parts
Novels
*I feel blessed to be a part of your child’s educational journey*
