Ms. Gordon's 4th Grade: Remembering 9/11

Meet the Teacher!

My name is Sarah Gordon. I grew up in Columbus, GA where I graduated from Columbus High School. From there, I moved to Tuscaloosa, AL where I graduated from The University of Alabama (Roll Tide!) with a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education (K-6). This is my second year of teaching, and I can't imagine a better place to be than Oliver! I am currently in the process of obtaining my M.Ed at Troy University. I love watching football, traveling, being outdoors, and hanging with my dog, Lulu. My goal as an educator is to instill a lifelong passion of learning in your child by creating a nurturing learning environment where they can thrive. Teaching is truly a passion of mine, and I am thrilled to be your child's teacher this year!

Remembering 9/11

With the anniversary of September 11th quickly approaching, we spent time during social studies talking and learning about what happened on that terrible day.

As you can tell, my students had some excellent questions about the topic. We created a KWL chart (what you know, what you want to know, what you've learned). I could barely fit their thoughts on the board! :)
