Jill Ashmore Kindergarten At Evergreen Academy since 1997
Education: B.A. in Elementary Education, Pacific Lutheran University; M.Ed. Curriculum and Instruction, Lesley University
Experience: I have taught at Evergreen Academy since 1997, in both Kindergarten and First Grade. During my time here, I have also enjoyed training teachers in new curriculum, developing and improving our Kindergarten program, and working with O.P.T. to build our school community.
Passions & Interests: I love the Northwest and all it has to offer, especially the opportunities to spend time outdoors enjoying the trees, the mountains, and the animals. My Yorkie and I get out for walks and exploring as often as we can. My other hobbies include traveling, photography, digital design, and perusing antique shops. My true passion, however, is teaching. I love working with these amazing kids, guiding them to discover and create each day.

Classroom Notes
November is Here!
We had a wonderful first week of November here in Kindergarten! Believe it or not, the first trimester is almost at an end. We are busy filling portfolios and preparing report cards, and are looking forward to sharing them with you at conferences. Please respond to the google form sent to you with your time preferences and return the comment form from your Friday Folder.
Election Day
Tuesday, we talked about our right to vote and had our very own mock election based on the story Duck for President. Students loved tallying and graphing the votes! Duck won in all three classrooms.
Collaborative Weather Project
During Social Studies and Science this week, students worked on their collaborative weather forecast projects. Each group worked to discuss and plan a weather forecast based on a given situation. They had to learn about weather tools (thermometers, rain gauges, windsocks) to show the audience what to expect for the weekend weather. Next week, they will practice and present their forecasts to the class.
