All about me!

Hello, Parents!
For those of you who came to Back to School night, it was wonderful meeting all of you! If you didn't come, I can't wait to meet you! It is going to be SUCH a fun year and I can't wait for it to start! I can tell that it is going to be a great class. Ready or not, here it comes! First grade is a BLAST! Parents, if you ever have any questions or concerns, please feel free to give me a call or send me an e-mail.
Since I didn't really get a chance to introduce myself to all of you tonight, I am going to take a minute to tell you about your child's new teacher! My name is Summer Jackman, and I am originally from Plano, Texas. I went to school at BYU-Idaho and student taught in Blackfoot in the first grade. Right after student teaching, I got a job teaching first grade in St. Anthony and I knew that first grade was where I was supposed to be! Now I am teaching first grade at Hillview and I love the staff, school, and students. I hope to stay here teaching for a long time. I have known that I wanted to be a teacher since I was 11, and I love what I do! I honestly can not wait for this year to begin.
I have an AMAZING husband, Mark. He is from Concord, California. We met playing volleyball at college, and the rest is pretty much history!
Well that's all about me, and I can't wait to get to know your kids!
Here we go!
-Mrs. Jackman
P.S. I am planning on posting on the blog every Friday about our week. So if you are ever wondering what we did that week, come on over!
