This is my first year teaching First Grade and I am thrilled to begin this adventure with you! I was born and raised in Livermore, but now I live in Dublin with my friend Michelle and her dog Maven. Developing curious, life-long learners who love God is my passion. I hope to foster a community of observers, critical thinkers, and enthusiastic people who are curious about the world, finding their place in it, and contributing positively to society. I believe children learn best in an environment that is accepting, dynamic, and exciting! This year will be filled with reading, writing, manipulatives, math games, reading aloud, and new friends. Welcome to First Grade!
