Catherine Reed - The Brown Bag Teacher

Hi, friends! I am Catherine Reed, and I am just beginning my journey in education. My first year I taught 5th grade ELA in a 1:1 classroom. Then, I explored 1st grade in my dream district for two years, have taught K/1 and 1/2 combination classes, was a literacy consultant for 3 years, and now work at Green River Regional Education Cooperative as a Professional Learning Specialist.

With 30 iPads and 30 kiddos in each of my classes, technology and hands-on learning rule! Everyday I teach 3 classes of reading, 1 class of writing, and 1 class of Reading Intervention.

Yet to be added

I grew up in the public school system and attended a lovely private, liberal arts school in Kentucky. While in college, I had the opportunity to live abroad (London) where I earned a double major in Elementary Education and Government!

I am from Providence, Rhode Island but have grown up in the wonderful bluegrass state of Kentucky! I am a proud foster Mom, love beautiful old barns, and spend much of my time hanging out with my cat, Staples.
