Jamestown, NY I began my teaching career in Jamestown in 2008.
I enjoyed being a special education teacher at Persell Middle School for five years. However, in 2013, I made the jump to KINDERGARTEN at Lincoln Elementary School! Teaching kindergarten has always been my goal and I couldn't pass up the opportunity. I have always loved to dance and also teach Zumba at Anytime Fitness. Don't be surprised if your child comes home with some snazzy new dance moves. I

Hi, K Families! I went on a FB hiatus last school year. I intend to get back to using it this year. Look at this neat feature in the Walmart app. Our school’s class lists are preloaded. The kindergarten list is accurate. I just thought I’d share this quick back to school hack!

Do you have the Talking Points app?
Have you "LIKED" our Lincoln FB page?
If you pack your child’s lunch, here are some quick tips to maximize eating time in the cafeteria. We do have staff to help your child, but prepping as much as you’re able to will help your kiddo begin eating sooner.

Here I am on the first day of kindergarten waiting for the school bus to arrive outside of my house! I was very excited for my new adventure. No matter how your child feels tomorrow, please know that it is all normal. Some are nervous, some are excited, some are uninterested, etc. The transition to kindergarten will look a little different for every kiddo and that is okay. We will work together to provide your child with a memorable kindergarten year.

I love this quick video on crayons! We can make anything work, but I think this K teacher gives a great explanation as to why 8, 16, or 24 Crayola crayons are requested ; )

When you’re trying to get your kiddo to do something tomorrow, try singing the chorus to this song, but insert your child’s name! I’d love to see their faces! “Come little ________! C-O-M-E!” They May just tell you just how awful of a singer I am, but 🤷♀️ . Anyway, we practice this tricky word all week!
