Staff Survey - Getting to Know Mrs. Annie Kauffman

1.  High School--Montpelier High School
    College--Heidelberg College
    Master's Degree-- Bowling Green State University
2.  I teach second grade Reading and Socil Studies.
3.  In the classroom I use many interactive Smartboard Lessons.  Once a week we have a day of Language Arts centers.  The students practice many skills in student-led, small group activities.  I also use many different settings to teach including whole group, small group, and one-on-one activities.  Students are given one-on-one interventions as needed.
4.  For the past few years, I have been a mentor teacher to entry-year teachers.  I am also participating on the technology committee this year.  I have participated in many small group book studies such as understanding poverty and improving teaching strategies.  I helped coordinate Family Fun Night.  I always attend the 2nd grade reading night out that the academic boosters sponsers.  I was the coordinator for the Healthy Me after school program for many years.   This was an after school program promoting healthy choices.
5.  I feel that our school has a superior staff.  Our teachers go above and beyond to understand the academic needs, behavior needs, and emotional needs of all students.
6.  To descrease paper use, I have made an effort to implement paperless learning.  I have also provided many classroom supplies as needed.
