Welcome to my webpage....looking forward to teaching 3rd grade this school year!
About Me....
My name is Romie V. Dale Amos. I have three amazing sons and have been married to my wonderful husband for over 35 years. I am a native of Louisiana but I have not lived there for forty years. After graduating high school, I enlisted in the United States Air Force, which inspired me to travel the world and become a teacher. I have been teaching since August of 2006. I have taught Special Education- Resource, ESL, 2nd grade, 4th grade, middle and high school. I graduated from University of Maryland-College Park with a Bachelor's degree in Social Science. Also I have graduated from Liberty University, VA with a Master's degree in Teaching English As a Second Language. I taught students in Kuwait, China and South Korea for eight years. I really enjoy traveling and learning about other cultures, as a matter of fact, my husband and I have visited or lived in over 40 countries during my international teaching journey and my husband's military career.

Math- Happy 2025!!😁
During the 4th S ix Weeks in Mathematics, we will begin with solving one-step and two-step word problems in all operations -- addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division equations. For example, "A team has 5 players, and each player scores 9 points. If 3 points are taken away for a penalty, how many points does the team have now?" or " There were 252 horses in the pasture. The rancher added 163 new horses to the pasture. How many horses are now in the pastures?" We will represent real-world relationships using number pairs in tables; and then we will summarize a data set using a frequency table, dot plot, pictograph, or bar graph.
We will delve into two-and three-dimensional shapes by identifying, sorting shapes, and finding quadrilaterals such as parallelogram, rectangle, rhombus, square. Finally, we will divide the shapes into equal parts to name the fraction of each part.
English-Language Arts and Reading-
During the 4th six weeks, we will read realistic fiction genre about the concept of teamwork. As we read the texts about teamwork and view videos about how sports can bring people together as a team, students will learn vocabulary words such as collaboration, symbiosis, determination, and unity. They will learn how to apply these terms to their everyday life as well as academic learning. We will identify text and graphic features, ask and answer questions about the text, locate the literary elements in the texts, and analyze (look closely) the author's craft as well as the theme in the texts and videos.
We will learn and spell words with the "vowel sound in joy" by alphabetizing the words, creating stories, and more. We will build our vocabulary by learning and reading words with the suffixes -er, -or, -est, and -ment.
We will practice writing short-constructed responses to text read as well as extended-constructed responses by using correct capitalization and punctuation.
Science-
During the 4th Six Weeks in Science, we will investigate processes that change Earth.We will explore organisms and environments by reading about and discussing interdependence, food chains, and environmental changes. We will also investigate the Solar System by delving into understanding the Sun, Moon, the planets, and space.
