About Mrs. Tartaglione and Miss Dealy

  Mrs. Tartaglione
    I am so excited to be your second grade teacher!  I am looking forward 
to getting to know all of you when school begins.  I also feel that it is 
important for students to know a little bit about their teacher so they feel 
as comfortable as possible in the new classroom setting. 
    To begin with, I live in Weymouth, MA which is about 25 minutes away 
from Plympton.  I live with my husband and two adorable dogs, Muffin and 
Cali.  I was born and raised in Weymouth and I have been working as a second 
grade teacher in Weymouth for the last three years.  Now I can look foward 
to commuting down to Plympton and enjoying the beautiful scenery your town 
has to offer (cranberry bogs).
    Also, I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from 
Framingham State College.  During my first year as a second grade teacher I 
began taking classes toward earning my Master's Degree in Elementary 
Education as well, and I graduated in June of 2005.
    In my spare time I love to read, walk my dogs, and spend time with my 
family.  I also take yoga and country line dancing classes.  I look foward 
to camping in the summer and taking our canoe out on the Back River, which 
is about 100 feet from my back yard.
    My favorite subject to teach is reading because literacy is the most 
valuable gift in the world.  I also love teaching math and playing fun math 
games to help students to connect with the concepts.
    Upon entering the classroom I expect only one thing from my students, 
RESPECT.  If we all have respect for one another we can begin to build a 
team of learners.  With team work we can all succeed!



Miss Dealy
    This will be my second year teaching second grade at the Dennett.  As a 
graduate of Silver Lake Regional High School, I am proud to be teaching in 
the school district where my education began.  I received my Bachelor of Arts 
Degree in History and Elementary Education from the University of 
Massachusetts, Amherst.   I also earned my Master of Education Degree through 
the Collaborative Teacher Education Program at the University of 
Massachusetts, Amherst.  My teaching experience includes working as a Special 
Education Assistant, a Substitute Teacher, a Summer Camp Teacher, and an 
Elementary Tutor. 
    During the summer I love to go to the beach, go camping, and jog with my 
dog, a golden retriever named Ben.  In the winter I love to go on 
snowboarding trips with my friends.

Mission For Second Grade

    It is our goal to create a comfortable classroom environment in which 
all learners feel challenged to take risks and believe in themselves.  We 
expect students to be kind and respectful to one other and to all of the 
staff members in our school.  We know that we will become a wonderful team 
of learners and we will motivate and support one another in the learning 
process.  We will work very hard in second grade and we will have so much 
fun learning together.  We believe that all students can succeed in all 
subject areas, and when we believe- we achieve!
