Welcome, from Miss Casey!
GRADE 4-C
About Me.
My name is Meg Casey, and I have been teaching here at ISNS for 2 years.
I come from a very small town called St. Stephen in the province of New Brunswick, Canada.
I earned my teaching certificate from Crandall University, and I majored in English at Mount Allison University.
I understand that not all children learn the same way, so incorporate different learning styles into my lessons. I also work hard to provide a positive learning environment where students always feel welcome and safe.
I am very excited to meet you so we can start growing and learning together.
I am very excited to present Grade Four's website, which will help showcase what we do both inside and out of our classroom. I can't wait to start working together!
You can find information here about homework, class updates, school notifications and events, and some helpful websites. Use the tabs at the top to help you find your way through our website.
All of our learning goals follow the New Brunswick Curriculum for Grade Four.
