My name is Erin McDonald and I just started my 26th year of teaching children with special needs!  I enjoy reading, exercise, and cooking healthy meals.  I have two boys at home who keep me busy when I am not at school.  I am looking forward to the 2017-2018 school year at Juniper Hill!  

I have many goals for students in my class and will share three of them with you…

We will spend a lot of time this year addressing feelings, identifying feelings, and teaching children how to find comfort in my classroom when they are upset.  

During my calendar time, I will be teaching children to recognize and name numbers 1-10.  

As a teacher, books and reading are so important to me.  I am excited to teach your children how to handle our books respectively and appropriately, to hold them right side up, and to turn pages one at a time from front to back.

I hope you all have a wonderful school year!
