Hello!  My name is Anna Milanowski and I am so excited to begin my seventh year here at Wines!   I am a true midwesterner.  I grew up on the west side of the state and moved to Ann Arbor to attend the University of Michigan as an undergraduate.  I then taught in Chicago for four years in a Spanish-English bilingual school while receiving my Master's degree in Elementary Education from Northwestern University.  Most recently, I spent three years in Detroit coaching other teachers in student-centered learning and teaching on the Southwest side of Detroit.  After teaching in both Chicago and Detroit I am very happy to be back in Ann Arbor.


Second grade is a huge growing year for children.  First, each day we will work together to become humans that care for one another.  We will work to understand our own needs, our own emotions and those around us. We will be working to become attentive, persevering readers who notice letter patterns and can use a variety of strategies to read new words.  We will develop our identities as writers so that we can write a variety for a variety of purposes from personal narratives to non-fiction texts. In math, we will begin working with larger numbers as we add and subtract.  Finally, in Science we will be observing the natural world around us as we learn about life cycles and states of matter.  Second grade is a big year where great learning will happen!
