Welcome to 7th Grade Advanced ELA! I hope everyone is excited for a new year, I know I am! We’re going to make memories, have fun, and learn new things together!

My goal is not only to help foster a love of reading and writing, but also to create an environment that fosters communication, collaboration AND critical thinking. We will see each other twice a day so we have lots of opportunities to really get to know each other! I hope students enjoy coming to my class, but it’s not going to be easy! I believe ALL students can learn if they put forth the effort. I want to push everyone to their next level (whatever level that may be for each student).

I can’t wait to get to know everyone. Please email me if you ever have any questions or concerns and we can work it out together. Make sure you subscribe to my blog to receive all communication.

I look forward to a great year and working with all these Roughnecks!
