WELCOME to the 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEAR!
Hello Students and Parents,
I am Natalie Johnson and have been in District 204 (D204) for nearly 20 years- ten at Waubonsie Valley and the remainder at Metea Valley. I have been teaching math for nearly 30 years. This school year, I am teaching Honors Precalculus and AP BC Calculus.
My two sons are successful products of D204 – graduates of Steck, Granger, and Waubonsie Valley and are both college graduates who are gainfully employed.
The best way to reach me is via email, and I generally respond within two business days. I am generally available for help before school every day, arriving between 6:45 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. in our regular classroom meeting place. Math resource is also an option for help every lunch period. Mobile ready and available to help streamline communication, my classroom website is www.mrsnjohnson.com. New this year, I will also use an app called Remind to communicate tidbits of information from time to time. As in years past, a weekly agenda will be prominently displayed at the start of each week inside the classroom so that students are aware of our weekly plan. The classroom website consists of the entire year's textbook (homework) and worksheet assignments for students who wish to work ahead. The answers are also posted on the website, for I am more interested in seeing students' critical thinking skills communicated and expressed on paper.
I am super excited to work with the students this year. Let’s start strong and finish strong! Here’s to an AMAZING and successful school year!
Regards,
Natalie Johnson, Ph.D.
