Ford Elementary - Third Grade

***  Check out the Writing Page to see our Field Trip photos!!!  ***

2007-2008 is a great year to be a third grader at Ford Elementary here in Georgetown!  In addition to fun science experiments, interesting novel units and home projects, the students will also learn their multiplication facts and to write in cursive this year.  Below you'll find some information about me.  Be sure to check back after the school year begins for updated Spellings lists and to read the students' writing.

Education & Teaching Background:

bulletEducation: I graduated from Sam Houston State University in Dec.1998 with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, with a specialization in English and an extension in Early Childhood.  I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Sam and participated in student government while there.  It was an incredible experience!
bulletAfter college I wanted to try something besides education, so I was an office manager for a local orthodontist.  Organizing the office and meeting the patients was great but not all that rewarding.  I was offered a second grade teaching position six months later and couldn't pass it up.  Teaching is a passion for me, and I'm so excited to be doing something I love so much!
bulletI have taught for eight years.  Five of those years I taught second grade, and the last three have been in third grade.  This will be my second year at Ford.
bulletIn my free time I enjoy a variety of activities!  I love to cuddle up with a good book, cross-stitch and bake, but I also love to go mountain bike riding and hiking with my husband.  This past year I had the chance to go white-water rafting and absolutely loved it!
