About Me

My photo
I graduated from the University of Cincinnati in June 2009. I began my wonderful career teaching first grade shortly thereafter, in August 2009. In June 2016, I completed my Masters with the focus in Reading grades K-6th. This will be my 14th year utilizing a blog and hope that it will provide parents with another avenue to view their child's accomplishments throughout the school year.

Making Our Mark

We certainly had a fun-filled week of learning in room 103.  We continued to show what we Can Do in different Literacy Stations, we listed things we can't do....yet, and we sang and danced to a song on Dot Day about Making Our Mark.  Here are some photos from our week:
