= Welcome to Mrs. Weaver's First Grade! =

==My name is Sherry Weaver. This is my 22nd year in first grade in the Palmyra Area School District. I graduated from Penn State in 1993 with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I returned to Penn State to earn my Master's degree in Early Childhood in 2003. I also completed my English as a Second Language Certificate.== ==Although I have taught various grades, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE FIRST GRADE!!! I love the enthusiasm first graders show towards learning. I love watching children at this age develop and grow through hands-on experiences in reading, writing, and math. I believe that each child is a unique individual with his/her own learning style. I try to create a welcoming, supportive environment in my classroom that enables each child to work to his/her full potential.== ==When I am not teaching my time is spent with my 2 wonderful sons, Matthew, 17 and Nathan, 15 and my yellow lab, Lily, 5. I love doing just about anything outdoors: riding 4-wheelers, riding bike, camping, boating, jet skiing, and gardening, etc.==
