Hello!
My name is Ms. Velasquez, and I'm excited to begin my fifth year teaching English Language Arts to 5th and 6th- grade students. I hold an M.A. in K-12 Education with a concentration in ELA from NJCU, and I am also a certified Reading Specialist. My role involves planning, teaching, and assessing instruction to help students reach their reading and writing goals.
I chose to become a teacher because I believe in the power of positive change. My goal is to inspire students to understand the world by learning with and from one another. By doing so, I hope to plant the seeds for their growth and lifelong learning.
Personally, reading and writing have always been more than just hobbies to me- they've been my escape and passion. I aim to share this love with my students, fostering a generation of creative, innovative, and enlightended young minds. I'm eager to get to know your children and look forward to an amazing school year together.
Please don't hesitate to reach out to me at [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns. Communication is key!
Warm regards,
Ms. Velasquez
