With September here, and our school year getting into full swing, we are thrilled to welcome Ms. Chesley to our Kindergarten family. As many of you may know, Ms. Chesley co-teaches the 1/2 grade Largatija class with Lindsey (Lou) Hoyt. Excitingly, on Ms. Chesley's "off" Largatija teaching days she will be joining us in the Cottontail Rabbit classroom. Ms. Chesley's Kindergarten teaching schedule will be every Tuesday and alternating Mondays and Thursdays. Please note, I will continue to be your child's primary teacher with Chesley taking on an assistant role within our Kindergarten program. In coming weeks, I will be adding her schedule to our website calendar page for your reference.
Chelsea's role in will be to help me provide a routine, structured environment for our students as we, together, further individualize support and personalize education. Her background in education and her teaching license will allow her to take co-teaching role, at times, within the Kindergarten classroom as I continue to work (for my third year) as Willowwind's Curriculum Coordinator. Her support will be invaluable in giving your child the encouragement to grow and succeed while we work collectively to further the growth of the entire Willowwind program.
Below is more information about Chesley. In the meantime, please be sure to give a friendly Kindergarten hello to Chesley when you see her.
Chesley's Bio:
My name is Chesley Osborn and I graduated from The University of Iowa with a major in Elementary Education and a focus in talented and gifted education in May of 2015. I've worked closely with the Belin-Blank Honors Center throughout my time at the University of Iowa on a variety of projects, working directly with gifted elementary students. I am originally from Fayetteville, Arkansas. I am thrilled to work with the staff, parents, and students at Willowwind! I couldn't be happier to stay in the Iowa City area, though this opinion tends to change in the winter. After four years I am still shocked by the first snowfall!
