WELCOME BACK!
Meet your teacher
This is my 14th year or teaching, teaching and learning has always been my passion. It truly makes me a better person and I feel so grateful I get the chance to learn and grow with you this year. I have taught grades 1st-4th, but third grade is the best! I love the curriculum and I love the students. We learn a lot and have a fun time along the way.
I grew up in Austin Texas and over the years I have lived in many different states. I moved to Utah about 14 years ago and I don't think I'll ever leave, I love it here. The mountains are my absolute favorite!

Aside from teaching, traveling is my absolute favorite thing to do!

Positive & Negative Consequences
Positive
Negative
Each student will be earning letters to spell KINDNESS. They will move their clip along the K.I.N.D.E.S.S. board. Each time a student goes above and beyond they move their clip one letter on the chart. Students can only move forward, never backwards on the chart. When a student "spells" KINDNESS by getting their clip to the final letter, they will be celebrated by the class, receive a certificate, and a small reward.
Students can also earn one or more of the following:
-Positive prasie
-A happy phone call home
-Earn Dojo points to use towards class reward coupons
-Leader of the week (a positive trip to the principal's office)
-School wide award (Kindness dollar, kindness club, or class coin)

Students learn through their mistakes. This is a year to grow and learn together. I am a big believer in natural consequences and working through our problems. All students will be given a verbal warning and will discuss appropriate actions. I will work with parents and students when issues arise.
There will be times when students will need an opportunity to take a moment by themself and reflect their actions. During these times, they will will go to Think Time.
THINK TIME is a time and place for students to reflect on their choices. A student who has received a THINK TIME will go to another third grade classroom to fill out a form and take a quick break to cool down. The filled out form will be sent home for a parent signature and must be returned the following day.
