We have lots of work to do in literacy!  Learning to read is a complex task. I work with teachers of students in grades 5-12 to implement best practices in teaching reading, writing, speaking, listening, viewing, and visually representing.  My goal is to find the most effective resources and teaching practices to support teachers' work in order to provide effective adolescent literacy instruction for all of our students. 

 

Teachers in Morrisville are busy participating in many different kinds of professional learning. We are working to make sure that the literacy instruction we deliver meets the needs of 21 st Century learners, is comprehensive, well balanced, and provides the skills needed to be life-long learners.

 

  When I'm not in school, you can usually find me doing something active like--x-country skiing, biking, or walking. I also enjoy knitting, reading, cooking, and spending time with my family.
