Where did you go to high school and college?
I went to Hilltop. I attended Miami University and the University of Toledo, before graduating from Defiance College in 2008.
What grade/s and classes do you teach?
What are some of the activities or projects you do in your classroom to make learning fun and engaging?
In Reading, we do a lot of SMART board lessons. We also practice phonics and hunks and chunks with the Phonics Dance. In Science, students do experiments with floating, sinking, habitats, and properties of matter. We have made Dr. Seuss’s Oobleck and just observed the reaction between baking soda and vinegar.
What professional and/or student related activities do you participate in addition to teaching? (Supplementals and Volunteer)
I am a secretary for the LPDC. I am also pursuing my Master’s Degree at BGSU.
What is the best thing about Montpelier Schools?
The students make our schools wonderful. They are caring and driven to learn. Watching them succeed and work toward goals is the reason we are here each day. Parent and community support is another aspect that makes our school great. Having volunteers willing to give their personal time and resources shows that other people truly care about the success of our students.
As a district we are working hard to save the district money. What are some ways that you help save money at school?
I have cut down on paper in many ways. We have learned smarter ways to teach that do not require copies. I do not order reading workbooks for my students. Instead, we use the SMART board, whiteboards, and recycled paper from a business in town.
