Welcome to Classroom 113!

This is our Hawaiian themed third grade classroom. I've been teaching in this room since 1992 and it feels like my second home by now. My personal goal is make each and every child I teach feel welcome, loved and important so they can learn to reach the stars. My teaching mission is to instill the love for learning in a fun and structured environment as well as to teach my students to reach their goals in passing the Alabama Reading and Math Test. Teaching is my passion. I honestly love coming to work because everyday is a challenge and everyday comes a blessing. To see a child learning something new, to see them showing compassion and honesty, to see them growing leaps and bounds is what keeps me loving my job and continuing to try hard for them. They deserve it. Here's to a new, blessed schoolyear coming very soon!This is our reading corner below. The table is from my grandaddy's house from years ago. The chairs are special because they're from the old Thorsby High School. I like vintage furniture!
