4th Grade Room 201 Cohocton
Elementary |
Hello,
My name is
Lisa Nichols. I am a new teacher here at Cohocton Elementary and
new to the profession. This is my first year teaching in my own
classroom, though I do have plenty of experience. I have
participated in over 100 hours of volunteer work in the Rochester
City School Districts. I have also completed 325 hours of work in
various classrooms including student teaching. I enjoy spending
part of every summer vacation working at a camp for students with
special needs too. All of these experiences have helped me develop
a love for learning, both for my students and myself.
My educational
journey began in the Rochester City
Schools, but I did attend Wayland High School for a brief period.
My college career began at Monroe Community College, where I
planned to learn about being a Scientist, but soon discovered my
love of working with children. From there I transferred to SUNY Geneseo, where I received two bachelor's degrees and graduated cum
laude. I was also able to study Literacy Education practices in
Exeter, England. Currently, I am attending Nazareth College, in Pittsford,
NY. I am in the Master's Literacy Education Program. My love for
reading and writing has paved my educational path.
Other
"loves" of mine include motorcycles, extreme sports, shopping with
my friends, and spending a lot of time outdoors enjoying nature and
the company of my family. I was married this August and am the
mother of a four year old little boy (whom many of my students know
from recess).Overall I would describe myself as an energetic
optimist, and this translates into a teacher that cares about each
of her students, believes they ALL can learn, and strives to make
learning fun.
I look forward to the rest of the year with my
wonderful FIRST CLASS.
Thank you for taking the time to get
to know me.
Sincerely, Mrs. Nichols
