Welcome to Mrs. Pieper's Second Grade Classroom: The Super Stars!
My name is Darlyne Pieper and I am delighted to be your child's second grade teacher. The year is off to a great start and I am looking forward to many new and exciting times in the year ahead.
I am confident we will have a wonderful year. The second grade curriculum is a lot of fun. We will be learning to think while we read, write and publish more exciting stories, add and subtract three-digit numbers, and so much more!! We will study ourselves, our community, and other places across the United States. We will learn about our bones, the weather, solids and liquids, and fossils. We also will be reading many wonderful books and creating fun projects. You will be proud to see how much your child has accomplished by the end of the school year next June.
I love teaching second grade! The children are at the age where they are excited to learn new things, to explore the world around them, and to embrace new ideas. I strongly believe a child doesn't care how much you know until he/she knows how much you care. I care very much about your child, and his/her success as a student. I look forward to forging a partnership with you to ensure that your child knows he/she is cared for very much.
A little about me… I grew up the daughter of an Air Force pilot, living and traveling around the world. I earned a BA from Vanderbilt University and an MBA from George Washington University. I hold a NJ Teaching Certification K-6 and have been teaching elementary school since 2001. My husband and I live in Basking Ridge and have successfully launched our two sons. We will just bookmark that subject for now. I am sure your child will share some stories over the course of the year.
I look forward to getting to know you and working together this school year!
