Welcome to My Professional Portfolio!
My name is Angela Sonntag and I would like to welcome you and thank you for visiting my professional portfolio. I have been working with children for many years in and outside of the classroom and enjoy every moment of it. There is always so much to learn in the professional community of teachers, which is what you will be experiencing as you explore my portfolio. Working with my students over the years and continuing my education has brought me so much knowledge and so many experiences that are irreplaceable. This is one of the greatest benefits of being a teacher, because not only do we get to help children learn and grow, but we too learn so much from them! Allowing students to be their true selves in a classroom where they feel safe and free to learn without boundaries is a goal that I set for all of us so that the learning process becomes a part of the life process.
When you become an educator you take on a persona that is no longer solely about yourself, but more so all about the children. Yet, part of what makes someone a great educator is the life experiences they can bring to the classroom in order to help make connections with the students and the curriculum. I always remind my students that their life experiences are just as important as what happens in the classroom when it comes to learning! So please check out more ABOUT ME and learn how I became the person, student, and educator that I am now!
