#Mindful Mondays!

Meet Mrs. Sawl, our Orange (four-year-old) and Red (three-year-old) Class teacher who loves to inspire young minds!  Mrs. Sawl began her teaching career with St. Paul’s Preschool on September 1, 2005.

Educational Background:  I have a Bachelor of Science degree from Lock Haven University in Early Childhood Education.

Experience with children:  I have been teaching at St. Paul's Preschool for 20 years!

Goals as a Teacher:  I want to help the children find the joy in learning and a joy in discovering the world around them!

Some of my favorite things:  I love blue!  I love to eat at Applebees and the Longhorn Steak House.  I love to shop on Amazon and my Kindle and at Walmart, Target and Barnes & Noble!  My favorite children's author is Ellen Stoll Walsh ("Mouse Paints" and "Mouse Counts").  I love to read and draw/sketch.

What I like to do when I'm not teaching:  I am a dog trainer at PetSmart.  I like to read and take walks with my dog!

Sharon’s creativity and knowledge of early childhood development is evident in the learning centers she creates daily and in her lesson plans.  She individualizes instruction for each child, focusing on their strengths and interests!
