Teacher Biography
Hi! My name is Ms. Cannons and I'm going to be your first grade teacher. This is my fifteenth year of teaching. I have also taught kindergarten, third grade, and Title 1 reading. I love all the exploring and learning that go on in first grade! I also love reading and we will do LOTS of reading this year! I can't wait to help your child become a better reader and take them on many reading adventures!
I have two boys, one 21 year old and one 11 year old. We have two dogs, also boys! Nash is a teacup Yorkshire and Lucky is a mini Shih Tzu. They both love to snuggle. Something interesting about our family is my youngest son is in his 3rd year of 4-H and raises show pigs. We didn't know anything about pigs when he started so we are learning together. It is hard work but very rewarding.
I can't wait to spend this school year learning and growing with you and your child!
Classroom Notes
Enjoy your summer! Please remember to read and practice your math facts. You can also write about your adventures (or make up adventures). You can add pictures and/or make them into a book.Â
Reading should be an adventure, not a chore! I will be posting ideas, suggestions, popular series, and whatever else I can to help you help your child find books they enjoy. Remember also, your child is never too old to be read to. I read to my son even when he was in twelfth grade. This is great quality time and when we discussed the readings I got some insight to his way of thinking. Let me tell you moms, boys in general don’t think like girls! Don’t worry if they’re reading easy books- they’re reading! It doesn’t have to be books either. The newspaper is written on a 3rd reading level. Magazines are great also. They usually have short articles and vivid pictures.
