Greetings, Griffins! I'm Mrs. Johnson, and this year I will continue to teach 7th and 8th grade ELA. I've been teaching for 22 years in both public and private schools in the great state of Texas, and have also served as a tutor and a substitute. I'm thrilled to be a part of the ACA Tribe for the seventh year!
When it comes to the classroom, I have very high expectations for your effort and your behavior. We have less than 90 days together to get you ready for your next school year, so your ELA classroom will always be a place of focus and learning. Our mission: to discover the power of the written and spoken word. This will be a recurring theme this year, so buckle up Griffins---it's going to be a great ride!
- I've been married to my college sweetheart for 36 years, and have one child.
- My family and I are confirmed Marvel fans, and have seen almost every Marvel movie together. (But we still watch DC movies, too!)
- I'm an avid bookworm, and you can usually find me with my nose in a book. I enjoy reading biographies and fiction, but if I have to pick my favorite type of genre to read, then I would pick mysteries!
- If I'm not reading or grading papers, then you will find me digging in my flower gardens, or quilting in my sewing room.
- I have a literary crush on William Shakespeare--he's my favorite playwright and poet of ALL time!
