Hello!

Welcome to my portfolio...

My name is Jessica Francis and I am currently a first and second grade teacher. This is my portfolio to showcase the work I have done through the Master of Arts in Education program at Michigan State University. I hope you enjoy learning about my career and experiences over the past couple years!

 

"The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires." -William Arthur Ward

“Jessica is a team player. She is full of wonderful ideas and is willing to share them. At the same time she is open to new ideas. She embraces challenges and is dedicated to her craft of teaching” 

            –Marci Carlberg, 5th grade teacher and Coworker at Interplay

 

“Building relationships is of great importance in the classroom. Jessica is a vivacious, kind and caring individual who brings love, humor and compassion to her students at all times.”

            –Derek Smith, High School Teacher and Coworker at Interplay

 

“Jessica is able to follow through to ensure that the job gets done. She accomplishes these tasks with great initiative and with a very positive attitude.”

            –Grant Whitehead, Former Principal from Bryant Elementary

 

“Ms. Francis’s high degree of success is due in part to her exceptional work ethic and attention to detail, but also to the depth of her thought and reflection on her professional practice within and outside of the classroom.”
