English Language & Social Studies Savvy For Middle School, Conversational French, Spanish

I have known Marie professionally for approximately eighteen years having taught 5th grade with her my first year of teaching. I consider having Marie on staff to be a considerable asset. She continually offers many interesting and challenging lessons to enrich our curriculum while meeting the individual needs of her students on a daily basis. Her hands-on approach to teaching fully engages students and inspires them. She considers each child’s learning style and can regularly be found incorporating technology into her classroom to engage students. She is a committed and caring teacher.

Marie has completed extensive training in literacy instruction. She is fully versed in Corrective Reading and the middle school WriteWell Program. She is experienced with both AIMSWeb benchmarking and progress monitoring tools and NWEA MAP testing. She is also familiar with the MC3 social studies curriculum having taught it for three years. This training will serve her well as she moves on to new adventures.

In closing, I feel Marie is an exceptional educator. She goes both above and beyond what is expected of her to challenge our students regularly.
