Meet Mrs. Smith
My goal is to make learning fun and to help students take responsibility for their own learning experience. At Grand Oak Elementary, we want to personalize the learning experience for our students. We want to develop their passions and knowledge base. Students need to take risks and make mistakes in order to succeed. This year we will be emphasizing integrating MOVEMENT and BRAIN BREAKS to further enhance learning.
Seven years ago I married a wonderful man and went from Ms. Wunsch to Mrs. Smith. We live on the lake and enjoy our summers. I have four young adults. Two are in college. I adore animals and share stories of their adventures (children and animals). I view life as an adventure and thank you in advance for sharing your child with me for a school year.
This school year I will be teaching TWO blocks of math. However, I have links to literacy resources on the tabs above. My homeroom will be with me for Science and Social Studies and all transitions
