Welcome to my Web Portfolio! My name is Katie Dow, and I am from St. Stephen, New Brunswick. I am a graduate of St. Thomas University'sBachelor of Education Programme, where I concentrated in Elementary Education. My specializations and areas of interests are English Language Arts, Literacy, French, and Science.
For Parents and Students of VMES, welcome to my website! Please scroll to the 'VMES 5!' page (on the left side) for more info about what is taking place in our class and for homework information.
As a new educator, I am inspired and excited by the interesting and innovative things that are taking place in the world of Education. I emphasize, and strongly believe in, the ideas of differentiated instruction, collaborative and reciprocal teaching and learning, and student-centered teaching. I believe that today's 21st Century Classrooms require the implementation and practice of Professional Learning Communities and the use of technology in the classroom to produce successful global citizens.
Please enjoy exploring my Web Portfolio and do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or comments that you may have!
