2. I am married to Roy Woods, a teacher. We got married last
November!
I graduated from LSU with a Master’s degree in Elementary
Education in 1997.
This is my 15th year teaching and my 6th year at Bonne Ecole.
I believe that learning starts with my students feeling like they are
an important part of our classroom “family” and giving them the power
to be in charge of their own learning

3. Prepare your child for fourth grade!
Teach them to use and be comfortable with
technology
Give them the skills they need to be
independent learners
Learn to respect their classmates as well as
themselves
Teach them to be responsible and organized
Encourage them to find the answers to their
own questions

4. We use the school wide PBS expectations
of being positive, safe, responsible, and
respectful as our classroom rules
Students are rewarded for following these
expectations
Consequences are given when they have
failed to follow them
