They ask questions and love to go to extra mile, pushing themselves to grow both inside and outside the classroom. <br><br><strong>When you think about the students at Hillbrook, what&#8217;s the one thing that stands out to you?  <\/strong><br>Kindness and empathy are two traits that Hillbrook students have.  <br><br><strong>What is your favorite unit or project and why? <\/strong><br>In first grade this year, I have enjoyed our small moment narrative writing unit. It&#8217;s amazing to see the first graders&#8217; imaginations materialize on paper. For many of them, it&#8217;s the first time they have formally written a story in school. It&#8217;s really neat to see their first draft and compare it to their final draft!  <br><br><strong>What made you choose to teach at Hillbrook? <\/strong><br>I loved Hillbrook from the moment I saw it. 14 acres with trees and a river flowing through campus felt too good to be true! The teachers and staff are so friendly; it instantly felt like family.  <br><br><strong>What are you most looking forward to at Hillbrook in the next few months?<\/strong> <br>Continuing to see the first graders evolve! They have grown so much from the beginning of the year, and I can&#8217;t wait to see what they will be able to accomplish towards the end! <br><br><strong>What is the last place you visited? <br><\/strong>I went to Spain during Winter break; we went to Madrid, Valencia, and Barcelona! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What strikes you most about the students at Hillbrook?
