Hi! Some of you may have seen me here at Sibley Elementary last school year as I was a long term replacement in 2nd grade. I am very excited to be working full time in the Title I classroom this year. Some of my hobbies include running, boating, and being active with my children. I look forward to seeing your smiling faces.

Welcome back to school! This is my 2nd year teaching Title I. Most recently I have taught in the Mounds View Schools. Amber Jensen and I will be working as a Title I team this year. Your child will have the opportunity to work with both of us. When I am not at school I enjoy crafting, reading, and spending time with my friends. I look forward to working with you this year!
What is Title:
The goal of Title I is to provide a high-quality education for every child. The Title I program provides extra help to students who need additional help in the areas of reading and math. Title I instruction is in addition to the regular classroom instruction.
You as parents influence your child’s education. You can boost your child’s achievement in school by taking an active role in Title I. Let your child see that education is important to you not just to them.
Being parents, you know your child better than anyone else does. Feel free to share information about your child’s likes and dislikes with me or your child’s classroom teacher.
Always share a love of learning with your child.
Set a good example for your child. Let them see you reading, writing letters, and making lists.
Make learning at home just as fun as it is at school. Work on building language, reading, and math skills. You can do this by playing games and reading signs when you are driving or shopping.
Limit your child’s television time and have your child read to you or you read to them. As you are reading together, stop and discuss what is happening in the story. Make predications about what might happen next.
