About The Teacher
Hello parents, students, and community members! Welcome to Ms. Zelman's website. I am glad you are visiting this site to learn more about my classroom, Waterbury, and me. I have been teaching third grade at Waterbury since March, 2003. I love teaching third grade and every year I am eager to see what I can learn from my students. I value learning from others; the students and I learn from each other, and I, personally get many ideas from teachers and parents. Every day is a new growing experience for students, parents, and teachers alike. Before I began at Waterbury, I was an Inclusion Assistant in Lombard, Illinois and a Residential Treatment Specialist in Normal, Illinois. Both positions provided me with the opportunity to work with children with physical, mental, and social disabilities. These experiences taught me a great deal about creating a safe and successful environment for all students by encouraging them to reach their highest level of ability. This is something I live by in my classroom now. I hope everyone will join me in making this a priority in my classroom and at Waterbury. Although teaching is a priority in my life, my family is just as important. I grew up and still live in West Chicago. My family is close with my father, his wife, my mother, sister, grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins all living within a two mile radius of my son and me. I have an older brother who had a baby girl on August 8, 2005, and a younger sister who is getting married in October of 2009. However, the light of my life is my baby boy born on January 12, 2006. He is three-years-old (whomever said it was the terrible twos to look out for was incorrect), and I love to spend every minute with him. All of my family is very important to me and I love them dearly. Well, that's me! I look forward to learning about you as well. Please call me at any time and I will be glad to help in any way. Thank you for visiting my website.
