Welcome

Mrs. Kats
- I was born in Boston, Massachusetts.
- I grew up in Burbank.
- I attended Reavis High School.
- I graduated from Illinois State University.
- I received a Masters of Art in Teaching
and Learning from Nova Southeastern University, FL in 2002
- Some of my favorite things to do are
reading, quilting, gardening, meeting friends for lunch, and bird
watching in my backyard. Every spring we fill the bird feeders
hoping to see new varieties that haven't visited before.
- My husband and I have 5 children,
and we have 9 grandchildren with 2 more on the way by fall.
-
My favorite animal is a beagle, and I've had
three (so far).

We spend a great deal of our time reading and
responding to everything we read! We have some fun hands-on book
reports and some great pen pals in England. We often illustrate our
