My Work with Kids!

Indiana Reading Corps

• I worked tutoring children in reading for the Indiana Reading Corps at Manchester College my freshmen year and part of my sophomore year. 

Flyer Time

• During my Educational Psychology class, I had to chance to tutor three students after school for a semester.  I was there to help them with any homework along with assignments they had not completed.  It was a blast and something I truly enjoyed!  This is a picture of me and one of the girls I got to work with! 

Manchester Early Learning Center

• I have worked as an assistant teacher at MELC for almost a year.  I have worked with children between the ages of 2 and 6.  Working at MELC has given me opportunities to try different activities, games, and even practice behavior management!

Observations

I have had to opportunity to observe many different classrooms and teach different lessons while at Manchester.  A few examples are:

• Intro to Teaching in January 2004: Observed in a kindergarten class at Price Elementary for 3 weeks

• Manchester Elementary School - 3rd grade

• Laketon Elementary School - Kindergarten

• Northwest Elementary School - Resource Room

• Akron Elementary School - 4th grade

• The Oaks Academy, Indianapolis - 5th grade
