About Me
Hello, my name is Araceli Ruiz, and I will be teaching 3rd grade ELA. I moved to Alabama last summer when I got married to my husband who is in the military. I have been teaching for eight years, and recently graduated with my master's degree in curriculum & instruction. This will be my first-year teaching at Pine Level Elementary. I am very excited to be working with you and your child this school year. It is going to be an amazing year!

Class Read Aloud: Charlotte's Web
Educational Purpose:
Charlotte's Web provides an excellent ability to teach new words to children. Vocabulary is one of the best things to practice while reading this book. Kids learn how to use context clues to figure out the meaning of a new word and listen to the characters as they discuss and use it.
