About Kimberly from Funky First Grade Fun
My name is Kimberly. I am proud to be a mother, wife, speech-language pathologist and a teacher. Mt family includes my husband and our 2 children. I am so proud of my husband and my amazing kids. We also have 2 goldendooles. We are truly blessed!
I've been teaching for 13 years. My teaching experience includes school based speech-language therapy, young 5s, kindergarten, 1st grade and working as a literacy intervention specialist. First grade is by far my favorite thing to teach! I feel super lucky to spend my days working with children. There is nothing more rewarding than knowing that you have the chance to make a difference in the life of a child.
I'm pretty sure that most people who know me would agree on a few things...
I work hard.
I have lots of opinions (that I'm not shy about sharing).
I believe that it's important to advocate for every child.
And... I talk way too much. Ha!
I hope you will visit my teaching blog.
