school district for 8 years.  In the past 24 years of being a teacher, I have taught high school

science for 10 years, middle school math and science for 7 years, 5th grade for 2 years and, for the past 5 years...Kindergarten!  I'm staying put! Kindergarten has allowed my creativity and out-of-the-box teaching style to flourish.

 

 
The tools I use most for communicating with my families vary.  I send home notes often to let you know when your child wow'd me!  I use the Bloomz app which is useful for: texting reminders, messaging individuals, asking for volunteers, signing up for conferences and (more importantly) posting daily pictures that give you a visual of what's going on in the classroom,   I only use this website as a jump start to my preferred methods of communication.  Occasionally I will put links here though :)
