Welcome to Third Grade! My name is Mrs. I was born and raised in Orlando, FL. I have two brothers and one sister. I graduated from the University of North Florida and this is my third year teaching. For fun, you can find me relaxing by the beach or fishing on the boat with my husband and puppy, Finn! I also love reading and writing! Items for treasure box.

Mendonca and I teach first grade at Plato Academy in Largo. This is my first year teaching at Plato, but my nineth year teaching Elementary Education. I taught Kindergarten for 7 years, second grade for a year, and now I am in first grade. I love first grade and all the exploring, learning, and fun we get to have! I am from Brazil originally but I also have my American citizenship. I have been in USA for 15 years.

If your child is struggling with concepts we are covering in math class and they are not. Not currently ESOL endorsed as per the guidelines of FLDOE, however, I am currently in the process to achieve the required hours. Select which day this week you would like to come in early.
