Welcome everyone to my classroom webpage! This is where I will create weekly posts to keep parents updated on important information and where students will be able to access the many games and websites we use on a regular basis. Please take a moment to read my "About Me" in the introduction section of my blog.
As our first year being Summit View Academy- A STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) school; we have a very exciting opportunity to grow as a community of next generation learners. I can assure you that as we teachers are trained and lessons are implemented in new ways, I will always keep parents informed. I too, am a parent of children here at SVA and can assure you that the education and solid development of ALL of our students is my top priority.
Let me tell you about what I have been doing this summer... First, I once again organized and taught at the Stallion Academy enrichment program here at SVA in June. I am the Primary Talent Pool Lead Teacher at SVA for grades K-3, and after teaching at NKU's ExploreMore in 2010 as part of my Masters Degree in Gifted and Talented Education, I created the Stallion Academy in 2011 and this was our sixth session. I spent a six day vacation visiting my family in Michigan, where we did lots of sightseeing and my 2 year old son Isaiah started swimming with out being held! Then it was onto watching my 11 year old son Isaac's basketball games or taking my 8 year old daughter Isabella to gymnastics, and also teaching my 18 year old stepdaughter Taneil how to drive, and help prepare her for college...ahhh! Lastly, I was able to spend lots of time at the pool with my family and friends; soaking in the sun and reading for fun! I LOVE to read and you will find that one of my favorite parts of the day is when we all gather on the carpet for read aloud. I love to get into character!
I encourage you to take a few minutes to sign up to be a member of my blog; that way you will be instantly notified when there are any updates. For anyone unaware, there will be two parent informational meetings about our new Summit View Academy STEAM School on August 6th from 1:00-3:00 p.m. OR 5:30-7:30. Finally, I hope everyone is able to attend our Meet the Teacher Night on Thursday the 13th from 5:00-7:00 p.m.
Students- .I hope you enjoy the last few weeks of summer break! I encourage you to leave me a message with what YOU have been doing over the summer and I look forward to meeting you soon!
:) Mrs. Miller
