Welcome to Miss Hoover's 3rd Grade Classroom Website!

Welcome!

I am very excited to return again at Maplewood as a Third Grade teacher this year! In 2018 I started with Maplewood as an Interventionist working with reading and math groups of students from grades k-5th. In 2017 I became a recent summa cum laude graduate with an Interdisciplinary Studies: Elementary Education bachelors degree from the University of Northern Colorado. While attending UNC I spent my practicum semenster at Maplewood with third grade. I quickly learned to love the students, staff, and community around Maplewood and am so happy to be back! I like to teach students of all grade levels and subjects. 

For the last five years I have also been teaching educational camps at the Denver Zoo so I love to talk about animals. In my spare time I enjoy baking sweets, painting, and watching Disney movies with my family. Currently I have one pet at home; my little upside-down-catfish named Hiccup. For a number of reasons my life motto is "Just Keep Swimming" and my classroom motto is "Just Keep Reading, Reading, Reading." I consider myself a life long learner. 

I am District 6.
