Kindergarten

I am very excited to be teaching at Beckemeyer Elementary this year!  This is my 16th year teaching!  I have taught Pre-school, First Grade, and Kindergarten, where I have spent the majority of my teaching career.  I am passionate about teaching kindergarten.  I enjoy seeing the tremendous growth my little learners achieve in their first year of school.  I love teaching them how to read, write simple sentences, and the importance of being a kind and respectful friend.  We will spend a lot of time building our classroom community through daily conversations about respect, responsibility, and reflections of our lives and actions. 

My husband, Jimmy, and I live in Litchfield with our children Grace and Griffin.  Grace is in second grade and Griffin is ejoying his first year of Pre-school.  We love to be outdoors, the beach, being silly together, and living close to family and friends. 

I look forward to having a great year with you and your children.  I belive that an excellent home and school connection is key to learning success. Please write me a note in the agenda book, email, or call if you have any questions, concerns, or just want to check in! I am very flexible and willing to meet with you anytime.
