I am so excited to start at Central Elementary this year. I taught both 3rd and 4th grade in Chatham before spending a few years home with my two children (Jack and Blake). Last year, I taught 3rd grade in Livingston and am happy to join the East Hanover family this year.
In my own time, I love to be active (walking and yoga are my favorites)! I also value reading, writing, cooking and spending time with my family. My son, Jack, is six and loves Spider-Man. My daughter, Blake, is three and loves to sing the Wheels-On-The-Bus. Over the summer, I spend a lot of time at our family house in Lavallette.
This year, my goal is foster a safe, warm environment that encourages curiosity and a love for learning!
"It's a choice!" This is a quote you will hear me say often in our room. We will explore the idea of choosing to be positive... choosing to be kind... choosing to work hard. I am a big fan of the power of our mindset and what we CHOOSE to focus on.
