Welcome to the 2019-2020 5th Graders!! 

My name is Katherine Midlock, and I am the 5th Grade Math Teacher here at Meadow Lane! Teaching is my passion and I love planning for and teaching each and every student. Every student in my class will get the chance to grow and succeed, both academically and in his or her own person life. In order to succeed, I think it's important that you know a little about me: 

--I graduated from Illinois State University in 2017 with my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and minors in Spanish, Language Arts, and Social Sciences. 

--This is my third year teaching 5th grade, and my second year at Meadow Lane. 

--I am a 3rd generation teacher! My mom, grandma, and grandpa were all schoolteachers as well. 

--I have two older brothers and one older sister. I was the spoiled baby growing up!

--I am OBSESSED with the Harry Potter series. It happens to be my classroom theme ;) 

--Polar bears are my favorite animal. 

--I love to run, paint, and journal. 

--My favorite food is Coconut Shrimp. 

--I LOVE Dunkin Donuts iced coffee. 

I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you! Let's have a great year!
