 I
grew up in Platteville, Wisconsin on a Dairy Farm. I have three older sisters
and two older brothers. We are a very close family. I enjoy technology,
photography, music, reading, and of course teaching.
Education Undergrad: University of
Wisconsin, Whitewater Teaching I started teaching in the fall of 1983. I taught first grade in Wisconsin. My husband and I moved to Ohio in 1984, where I taught Kindergarten for seven years. In 1994, our family moved to Iowa. For seven years, I taught second-fifth grade Special Education. Many of my students had significant behavior issues. The school was in a high crime neighborhood and focused on the Reggio Approach to learning. I was also on the district's technology training and support team. The last year I taught in Iowa I started the Primary Autism program for the Linn-Mar school district. I had five students with severe Autism. We moved to Oklahoma in 2004 for my husband's job. I taught Kindergarten in Owasso for the 2004-05 school year. I started teaching at Eliot in the fall of 2005 as a Kindergarten Teacher. In the fall of 2006, I moved up with my Kindergarten to First Grade. This year I am teaching in the Resource room, which is located near the Computer lab. |
