About Me

Hello! My name is Mrs. Murley. I am a graduate from Clarke University with a Bachelors of Arts Degree in Elementary Education with a Reading and Coaching Endorsement. I have finished my student teaching experience at Resurrection Elementary in the kindergarten and third grade classroom. I have been teaching at St. Mary Immaculate Conception since 2009 in the Kindergarten classroom. I recently accepted a job working at Resurrection where I student taught in the Kindergarten classroom. I LOVE teaching kindergarten. It is a true passion of mine. I have a strong passion and eagerness to teach young children to become proficient and independent learners. I continue to strive to incorporate technology into the classroom. I believe technology gives students the building block to succeed in this technological driven society at a young age. We do so much in our classroom throughout the year with Ipads, Mimios, Clickers, and Flip Videos to develop our young learners. The students become successful, independent learners with all these devices and they enjoy learning with them.

Alliterations

Five more days left of school. With school wrapping up so is some curriculum. We have completed our whole math book so now we are working on in-depth writing projects, clickers, and extra time reading! Friday we did a review with clickers and the students LOVED it! So, I will create another lesson with clickers again for tomorrow!
Today we did a fun writing project with iPads! We have enough iPads for everyone to have one, which makes things easier. Each student opened the camera app and took a picture of each student in the classroom. After they were finished they uploaded them to iDairy (full version-$1.99). With each upload the students can add a caption on the bottom. Well we are learning about alliterations with one of the Shared Reading books we are reading-ABC Look At Me!! So, each student wrote an alliteration for each student in their classroom!! It was an exciting process. Each student took pictures, uploaded pictures, worked on their typing skills, thought of alliterations, and had create classroom bonding! The below is one of the students work!
