Lake Havasu Unified School District issued the following annoucement on Sept. 8.
FAVORITE THING TO TEACH AND WHY:
My favorite thing to teach is a tie between using Socratic Seminar to explore universal themes in To Kill a Mockingbird with 9th graders and facilitating Teacher Orientation based on the 5 Core Propositions of Accomplished Teaching.
There is nothing more fulfilling than supporting students in creating their own understanding of a text and building connections together – except maybe collaborating with teachers as they plan for a new school year.
YEARS TEACHING/YEARS WITH DISTRICT/YEARS COACHING:
15 years in the classroom, 4 years coaching, 19 years with the district.
GOALS FOR THE YEAR:
Supporting new teachers is at the heart of my work because it impacts students each day. My focus is on ensuring that we provide a content-rich and coherent curriculum so that students can have the highest quality education possible. LHC kids deserve it.
HOBBIES:
- PTA president-ing
- Girl Scout troop running
- Student activities advising
- Yoga teaching
- Mothering two girls with a very supportive husband and extended family
