Your new math teacher is Rebecca Waldron-Geranis! Most of you already know that I am Mr. Geranis's wife. Many of you had Mr. Geranis for 5th grade. Here is a math problem for you: What is the probability that a YMS student has both Mr. Geranis and Mrs. Geranis for teachers?
I love teaching math! I believe that we are all mathematicians, even if you may not realize it yet! We are fortunate to have a new math program this year called "Math In Focus". The math teachers at YMS are super excited! I will be heading back to school two weeks before our first day together to learn some new technology and to work with other math teachers during the Summer Institute!
I have been spending the summer doing the things I love: kayaking, gardening, hiking, reading, tutoring, practicing yoga, and spending time with my family and friends. I have two boys who will be attending Village Elementary School: Rhett and Emerson.
I am looking forward to learning with you in the fall! I spent this week painting and cleaning our new classroom. It is bright and cheerful! Please bring a photo of YOU doing something you enjoy to personalize our new space on the first day of school!
