Welcome to Kindergarten!
I wanted to take this time to introduce myself, my name is Sarah Newsom and
I am a kindergarten teacher at Gattis Elementary. I LOVE teaching
kindergarten. This is my third year at Gattis Elementary and I love it here!
My previous experience includes working as a special education teacher and
parent / in-home trainer for children with autism. I had such an amazing
time working with children with special needs. I am positive that I can
teach any child with and without challenges using multiple techniques and
strategies. I attended college at Texas A&M University and earned a
bachelors degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I am certified as a general
education teacher EC-4, a special education teacher EC-12, and I have my ESL
certification. My future goals include working towards a masters degree and
publishing the childrens books that I have written.
On a personal note, I recently got married to the greatest man I have ever
met. We are so happy living in Round Rock and are looking forward to
starting a family.
I am really looking forward to a great year! My main goal for my class is
to learn as much as we possibly can. Every single minute of the day holds
an opportunity for a teaching moment. We will go above and beyond in
academic and social areas. We will also be an inclusive class. We will
have children with special needs join us for parts of our day. Feelings
such as empathy, compassion, and acceptance of others will emerge. This is
one of my favorite things to watch transpire.
I want to sincerely thank you for sharing your children with me. I promise
to do my best by teaching them to the greatest of my ability and loving them
as if they were my own!
Sincerely,
Sarah Newsom
