I am so glad to begin this new school year with you...It is a new beginning and will be an exciting adventure!
I began my teaching career many years ago in first grade at St. Katherine of Siena School. It was during my first year that I knew I wanted to learn about how kids learn and process reading. I have always been an avid reader, and wanted to help students improve their reading skills, and share my enthusiam with my students. I finished my Masters Degree in Education with a Reading Certificate from Holy Family College. Upon completion, I started teaching reading at Abington Junior High School. I have taught every class and grade during my 23 years here at AJS!
When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also got a new puppy in March who keeps me very busy playing and walking. Traveling, reading, gardening, doing home projects, are just a few of my interests!
I know this is going to be a fabulous year! It will be a learning process for all of us. Please feel free to contact me at DanielleMartinelli@abington.k12.pa.us and I will respond at my earliest convenience.
