To Mrs. Sundloff’s & Maestra Matthews´ 2nd Grade Class!

Mrs. Sundloff: I attended Utah State University and received a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. I then taught first grade for two years until I became a mother to TWINS! For the last eleven years I have been home with my four children. I love my job as a wife and mother and I am SUPER excited to be back in the classroom teaching English and Language Arts in 2nd Grade Immersion!

Maestra Matthews: This is my first year teaching at Lincoln Elementary. When I was younger, I had the opportunity to study in Spain. I just graduated from Weber State in April. Because I did my student teaching here last year, I already know many of your children! I have 4 daughters & 2 sons. I believe that my experiences as a mother will help me to be a better teacher. I love to ski, read, & play in any river.
