Hello! I am Ms. Rivera. This will be my first year teaching fourth grade and I am beyond excited! I attended Northeastern Illinois University where I received my bachelors degree in Elementary Education. Over the Summer, I taught third grade in a bilingual classroom. When I am not teaching, I enjoy shopping, reading, and spending time with my family, and taking photos with my fujifilm install mini 11. My dream has always been to become a teacher. At the age of five, I knew what my future profession would be. Motivating and inspiring children to chase their dreams and educational goals is my number one priority as a teacher. My goal is to provide my students with a positive learning environment, where each student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Also, incorporating and developing strong relationships with parents is essential towards helping each student in my classroom succeed. As well as developing a positive rapport with each one of my students to increase participation, structure, and social interaction throughout my classroom.
