Janni Roberts
Hello...
My name is Janni Roberts and I am excited to be your student's Culturally Linguistically Diverse Education teacher.
I am excited to embrace your child's culture and celebrate them while helping them acquire fluency in speaking, comprehending, reading and writing in English. I look forward to partnering with your family to support your multilingual learner.
I have a Master's degree in Education and a Reader Teacher Certification and a Gifted and Talented Specialist Certification. I have a passion for culture, languages and the the arts, and I believe that great learning comes through learning about others.
One of my favorite philosophies is an African one...."Ubuntu." Ubuntu means “I am, because you are.” In fact, the word ubuntu is just part of the Zulu phrase “Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu”, which literally means that a person is a person through other people. I am thankful to have your child in CLDE classroom.
In my free time, I love spending time with my family, my dog, Sayler, learning languages, singing, playing the piano, meditating, spending time outdoors, reading and writing.
I love foggy, rainy days and chocolate:)
