Welcome to my first grade class.  At the end of this school year I will have taught 30 years.  Twenty of those years have been at Chapel Hill.  I started my teaching career in Houston.  I feel it is my responsibility to teach my young students all that I have to offer.  I know a great education is the door to being a successful person in life.  Laughing and learning go together in my class.  I feel you can learn by having fun.  We do a lot of joking, giggling, and being silly in class.  My students know when to be silly and when it is time to get busy.  A happy class achieves so much.

At the end of each year, I hope that I have opened their minds so that they realize learning is exciting and that they will have a quest for learning throughout their educational years.
