Welcome to F-7
I am a graduate of UC Berkeley’s Department of English, and I have a passion for literature that I hope to share with my students. In addition to introducing my classes to a variety of genres and authors, I plan to turn each child into a writer. That’s right. Every student who enters my classroom can expect to write every day. We will work on journal entries, with topics ranging from poetry to persuasive essays and goal setting to news articles. Families, encourage your students and offer to read their work. The more they share what they write, the more it comes alive.
I expect nothing less than the best from my students. I will accept only responsible, respectful behavior and work to the best of each student’s ability. I am confident that with a team of families, students and teachers, we can accomplish our goals and have a fantastic year.
Please explore this website -- where I will post information about assignments and other classroom activities -- and contact me with questions.
Thank you!
Mrs. Knutson
