Hello! Welcome to my website. I teach Special Education for the primary grades at Olympia North, and I am glad you have found yourself here. At the bar near the top of the page you will find tabs to various information and resources. If you click on "blog" you will be taken to the most updated information posted. This website is designed to give you resources to help your children, but it is also a place I want students to visit to see evidence of themselves working. I will include pictures of them working in my classroom, and will encourage them to volunteer to share their work on our class website. You may also be interested in the "student quotes" section, which will be regularly updated with the funny things my students say.
About Me
I went to college at Western Illinois University and then taught in McLean County Unit District 5 for 8 years. During that time I earned my Masters in Reading from Illinois State University. My husband and I have lived in the Olympia district since 2009, and are happy that I am teaching at Olympia North! We have two young boys, Silas and Levi, and they both attend North. We have a dog, Bella, a cat, Lexi, and a ten-gallon tank full of fish. I love spending time with my family and being outdoors. One of my favorite things to do is write (journal, poems, cards to people, etc.), and I hope to encourage a love of writing in my students.
