| About the Teacher and Class |
This will be my 9th year teaching 1st grade. For 7 years, I have been a part of this great Cooke family. I love this grade level because the kids grow so much academically and behaviorly. First graders will know how to read chapter books and write multi-sentence paragraphs by the end of the year. They learn to think independently yet work collaboratively with their peers.

I look foward to an exciting school year filled with lots of smiles and tons of learning.
