Meet Mrs. Welsh - I love books - all kinds of books! As a 6th grade language arts teacher for the past 20 years, one of my favorite things is helping a student find that perfect book - the book that he or she doesn't want to put down. Last year, I switched to teaching social studies, so I can use my experience teaching students to read to help students more successfully read nonfiction while learning about the world around them.
