About Me: In addition to the #teacherlife, I mostly just live the #momlife with this wild crew! Levi will be 9 in October & in the 3rd grade at Fairfield, Milo turned 7 in July & will be in the 2nd, and Rory is 5 and starting Kindergarten! So I will have 3 at Fairfeild this year--busy, but so fun!! & our littlest, Wini, turned 3 in July! We have 3 dogs & 2 kitties that we love so much! When I do get time to do something for me, I love to read, binge watch a good Netflix show, or go to a movie with my husband, Tony :)
This will be my 17th year at MHS & I am excited for the year ahead! I am hopeful that it will be a great year ahead filled with lots of fun & growth!
About Our Classroom
Classroom Information: We will work consistently on activities that include (but are not limited to): Functional academics (Math-money, basic; Science-content, current events, cooking; Social Studies-content, current events, various texts; Language Arts-content, chapter book/s, functional reading and writing lessons), Academics that correlate with the general curriculum, Social skill training (communication, appropriate behaviors in and outside of the classroom, etc.) & Personal & health training (cooking, banking, safety in the community, hygiene, etc.)
Vocational time will be embedded into each day with meaningful and purposeful tasks. These opportunities will help build students work-based skills as well as social/communication skills, time management, being prepared, flexibility, independence & problem solving skills... Among many, many others!
Additionally we will (of course!) work towards independent IEP & Transition goals (self-advocacy skills, job training, building a portfolio/resume, etc.) to help ensure that the students will be successful both in the present while they are here with us at MHS & then post high school as they pursue their individual goals!
About this Website
I hope that this website can help parents, students, as well as my colleagues see what we do day to day in our classroom & within the community.
Continuing to help build the bridge to positive communication between home & school is my overall goal!
