Welcome

I am pleased you are visiting my web page.  I am a 6th grade reading teacher. We use both the textbooks and novels in my classroom.  In the morning I teach my own homeroom Reading, Language Arts, and Spelling. In the afternoon  I teach the same subjects to Mrs. Stine's homeroom.

I graduated from the University of Illinois with a B.S. in Social Studies Education and also from the U of I with a Master's degree in the teaching of Reading. I also have an endorsement in Learning Disabilities.
