Teaching Experience
I have 10 years of teaching experience. I have taught grades 3, 4, and 6.
I have taught at three schools in the Lake Washington School District, including Redmond Elementary, Margaret Mead, and now Lakeview.
This is my ninth year teaching sixth grade, and I love it! They are developing their perspectives and opinions about the world, and they bring a lot of insight and great ideas to the classroom.
In My Free Time
I love to travel. I find it is a great way to learn and expand my teaching repertoire. Last summer I spent three weeks traveling throughout China. I can't wait to share pictures and experiences with my class during our study of the Pacific Rim!
