Let me introduce myself. I am a fourth grade teacher at Dieck Elementary in Swartz Creek, Michigan. I hold a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Michigan and a Master's Degree from Marygrove College.
I believe that every child can be successful in the classroom if given the opportunity to take risks and accept challenges in a non-threatening environment. Students should take responsibility for their learning by setting individual goals and developing plans for achieving those goals. As a teacher and mentor, I will work with sudents to guide them into being responsible students who can feel proud of their goals and achievements.
This website was created for the students and parents of Room 145. My hope is that you find it informative and enjoyable. The students are very proud of the work they have produced and contributed to this website. Please check back often for updates. Enjoy!
