About Mrs. Carl About Croak
Mrs. Carl is a second grade teacher at Corydon Elementary. She has been teaching for. . .well, let's just say. . .many years (more than 15 but she won't say how many more). She taught Title 1 Reading for a couple of years, first grade for many years, and is now starting her eight (or is it ninth?) year teaching second grade.
Mrs. Carl loves to read, write, cook, spend time with her beautiful family. Oh, yeah. AND TEACH! She has been active in the IUS Writing Project since 2004. (The National Writing Project is the oldest, sustained, national, teacher professional development in the US--find out more here: www.nwp.org.) Mrs. Carl's husband Mark is also a teacher for South Harrison Community Schools. Her beautiful and talented daughter, Lydia, is in 9th grade and her handsome, witty son, Dereje is in 7th grade. Mrs. Carl is passionate about teaching and welcomes you to her classroom! |
Croak is our class “pet”. He is a big green frog with floppy arms and legs and he LOVES second grade!
Each week, classmates will nominate other classmates who are Curious, Responsible, Original, Ambitious Kids (CROAK). One nominee will be chosen to take Croak home for the weekend along with a binder and camera to write all about his adventures. Croak has been to the beach, weddings, and birthday parties. He's gone horseback riding, ridden in a demolition derby car, and dirt-bike riding. He loves chocolate covered flies, trampolines and swimming. He can be a bit mischievous and has to sit in time-out occasionally but most the time is very respectful. He loves to read and write (though writing is a bit awkward with his webbed fingers and toes, so he'll need extra help from you). Needless to say, with all those adventures he's had to have stitches several times and is always a trooper (we have pictures of the "surgeries".) Croak can’t wait to get to know you and says he’s ready for an adventurous year! |
