Welcome to 1st Grade

Welcome to 1st Grade!
I am very excited to start another school year.
This is my 9th year at St. Bede's, but my first year in first grade!
 
My goal is to create a safe and loving environment for your child to learn in. I do this by teaching in a variety of ways to meet the needs of all my students.
 
Here are some things you should know about our first grade class:
We use Daily 5 and IREADY for ELA and a variety of manipulatives in all subject areas, but specifically math! 
 
I encourage independence and active participation. 
 
I use Class Dojo as a form of communication and positive reinforcement for class behaviors. Please click on the Class Dojo link to learn more. It is very important that we work together to make this a successful year.
