All About Ms. Jensen
I have been teaching for over 20 years now. Fifth grade is my favorite grade to work with. The students are discovering who they want to be when they grow up and are searching for their independence. I love helping them on their journey and making learning a lifelong desire. I feel like I have the best job in the world and love coming to work each and every day. I have two dogs: Coach and Indigo. I will share lots of stories and pictures of my fur babies. I am the oldest of three girls. I enjoy sports of all kinds, but especially basketball and softball. I am a huge Central Michigan University fan! I also cheer on Michigan State and the University of Tennessee. I am veracious reader and hope to inspire everyone I meet to want to read widely. I am also on the look out for that just right book that will turn a child into a reader. It is my honor and privilege to work with your children this year. In the summer of 2013, I spent four weeks in the [|Chippewa River Writing Project]. I am so excited to share all the tools I learned about writing with my students this year. This summer I have read several professional books that have guided my thinking and decisions for this school year.
