Goals for further development: 

1. Continue my education

by going back to school after teaching for several years. I would like to work towards my Master’s in Education.

2. Stay updated with teachers’ journals and publishing magazines

to find new ideas for my classroom, hear about exciting literature activities in my area, and stay informed on great new books coming out.

3. Continue building up a classroom library

to surround my students with great, readily available literature and help them love it!

4. Keep volunteering in the community

By being involved, my students will see me outside the classroom and I will be better able to build relationships with them and serve others and our Lord.

Volunteering with FoodNet, which places almost- or recently- expired food into the hands of the hungry.
