Hello, Hola, Hej, Yeoboseyo, Privet, Ciao, hujambo!   Whew, let me know if I missed one you know/like.  They all mean Hello; can you guess which one is Danish?  That is where my family is from; if you're Danish too and speak it, please let me know.  I don't have anyone to practice with in the United States anymore, and I'd really like to.  (If you speak a language other than English, what do you speak?) I do still travel to Denmark, but we take turns every few years since my family is there - I am a first generation American! With my father having been in the military, I am used to traveling and enjoy learning about different cultures (especially the people and food ; )
In addition, I play the piano ,do a little light gardening, and read when I can - once I start, it's hard to put down.
         After 20+ years of teaching middle school math (6th - 9th grade general, honors, and G.T., as well as the Specials Math classes), I have joined the awesome team here at Jackson-Keller Elementary as the Math Instructional Coach.  I am very much looking forward to this year and watching each child grow.  These students/your children are so kind and smart! I have included a video in the Parent/Student class Letter for more...
        I am committed to our students' experience in math being both positive and excellent and am looking forward to working with you.  Have a wonderful and prosperous year! See you around campus Jackrabbits : )
