Gina Lanzetta
3rd & 4th Grade
I love teaching 3rd/4th grade at FJA! There are many wonderful dynamics in a multi-age classroom, as well as the independent learning that occurs in a Montessori based classroom. My teaching philosophy proceeds from the principle that knowledge is woven into all disciplines, as well as interpersonal skills such as listening and cooperating. My teaching aims are to promote creativity, self-expression, and a life-long interest in learning, which flow naturally as students acquire basic competencies and are exposed to different experiences.
Prior to teaching, I worked in the social services field with teenage mothers, juvenile delinquents, and children with developmental delays. I have a Masters in Elementary Education and a Reading Endorsement from NAU, and a Bachelors Degree in Applied Sociology. My time away from school is spent with my daughters, my husband, and our dogs. We love to bike, swim, and spend time with family and friends.
