I believe in cultivating a positive classroom environment for all learners. We will be spending the first few weeks of school building our classroom community, setting expectations, and practicing routines. We will create our “Class Family Promise” which will be the foundation of what the expectations are in our classroom. Students will be a part of the process to create these “rules”. By allowing students to have a part in creating our classroom rules, students will intrinsically follow expectations and help hold each other accountable. I focus on students showing respect, being trustworthy and accountable, and being responsible and safe. Please discuss these expectations with your child to reinforce the positive behaviors desired. If you ever have any questions regarding behavior please contact me and thank you, in advance, for your support.

Welcome to second grade! My name is Miss. Nelson and this will be my third year teaching 2nd grade. I am delighted to be the bright beginnings teacher. I love teaching and I can't wait to share my love for learning with each of my students!

Aside from teaching, my hobbies include traveling, skiing during the winter, cooking, and taking my dog on walks. I don't have any children, but I do have a golden doodle named Luna, who I would consider my first child. I am originally from California and have enjoyed getting to explore Arizona. My favorite thing about Arizona thus far is the beautiful sunsets!

I am so excited to get to know you and your family. We have a wonderful year full of laughter, learning, and of course, loads of FUN ahead of us!
