Welcome to Pacific Sky

I am thrilled to be a part of the Pacific Sky 5th-grade team! I have experience teaching 3rd, 5th, and 6th grade. I have a bachelor of the arts in liberal studies (education) from California State University, Long Beach. I obtained my multiple-subject teaching credential from California State University, San Marcos where I had the opportunity to learn and grow in my teaching pedagogy. I am looking forward to a fun and joyful year of learning in 5th grade!

Educational Philosophy
&
What to Expect in Fifth Grade

I passionately believe that all students can succeed at exceptionally high levels with risk-taking, collaboration, and high-quality instruction. My goal as their teacher is to harness my student's love for learning by fostering their curiosity. 

This year in 5th grade, we will be finding adventure in classroom literature while engaging in Wonders. Students will be showing their voice through three forms of writing, including opinion, narrative, and expository. We will be using different problem-solving strategies, manipulating shapes in geometry, working with fractions, decimals, measurement, and engaging in algebraic thinking.  In 5th grade social studies, we dive into the age of exploration, U.S. history, and the 50 states. As a whole class, collaboration will be at the center of our focus. Lastly, in science, we will navigate through the water cycle, solar system, chemical reactions, and life science and use real-life applications through engineering and design focus. Students will learn in a flexible seating environment that will allow them to create in a space that fosters their curiosity and optimizes their greatest potential.

Life Outside of the Nest


My family! Fun fact: me, my two sisters, and my parents are all educators! 

I enjoy being an aunt to my niece Harper (7) and my nephew Andrew (4).
