I was born in Spain and I have been living in the states since 1991. I hold a Bachelor degree in Spanish/French languages and a Masters in ELL (MAELL). I am bilingual Spanish/English. I taught High School Spanish and this is my seventh year teaching ESL. I love to teach and I know all my students can learn. When they are in my room they are loved, respected and encouraged to learn.

Thank you for sharing your students with me.

 

Reading Specialist:

At Roy Elementary School we make an ongoing effort to help every student meet grade level proficiency in reading. All students receive grade level reading instruction in the classroom. If a student shows a need for additional support, through assessment and classroom observation, that student may be included in a reading intervention program. These programs are flexible, meaning students may move in and out of groups throughout the year. The Reading Specialist, Para-Professional, teacher, or Read Today tutor may offer intervention instruction.

If you have any questions about these intervention groups, please contact your child’s teacher or Mrs. Kinney, the reading specialist.
