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.

We are doing so great things in our classroom this November!


*We continue to have our "Special Readers." The students love listening to others, besides myself, read some of their favorite books! The lastest reader was my husband! He enjoyed every moment he was in the classroom!



We have also had police officers visit our classroom to talk about safety. Cpl. Tyler and Sara Jenaman talked to the students about stranger danger and safety signs! We really appreciate all the knowledge they have shared with us.



The students have also been working on getting to know the computer! Each student gets a computer and we are learning how to turn them on, open programs, and type!! We have one project complete and it's up on the website! We now will be working on GoogleDocs!! Each student will have their own account so we can share stories with teachers and hopefully our 3rd grade buddies!


One project the kindergarten kids completed was their letters to their senior companions. The kindergarteners used their 3rd grade buddies as helpers to make their notes extra special. We really appreciate all the help our 3rd grade buddies have done to make each kindergarten student feel at home at Resurrection! :)





We continue to learn new things each and every day. The next few projects coming up in kindergarten will be more computer/typing projects on GoogleDocs. We will begin our journal process and we start journaling every day in our new journal notebooks! We will also be continuing our science experiments and documenting all our predictions, experiments, and our findings!
