I
am excited to share that I am your new 4th grade teacher at McNeal
Elementary School. My name is Ashlie Fulmer and I am a product of Manatee County
Schools and a graduate of the University of South Florida. I have eight years
of teaching experience, a Masters in Educational Leadership, and my National
Boards Certification in Literacy. I cannot wait for the 2014-2015 school year
to begin, and to invest in the lives of your children. 
I taught at Wakeland IB Elementary for six years in their primary
grades. For the last two years, I have taught 6th grade Language
Arts at Haile Middle School. I desire to build strong relationships with
students and parents and to foster a love of learning, while facilitating
meaningful learning opportunities.
I challenge myself to be an innovated
teacher by utilizing assessment to drive instruction, and conducting authentic
teaching strategies, with ongoing differentiation. I understand the critical
need of interventions and remedial instruction. Additionally, to meet the needs
of gifted learners, I am capable of providing learning engagements to peak
their interest and challenge them to be critical thinkers, explorers, and
discovers. My instructional model includes Reading and Writing Workshops, with
the use of inquiry, technology integration, and hands-on learning.
I look forward to meeting each of you.
Please feel free to email me, as communication is a vital part of our success
this year. 
I am the proud mother of two
adorable little boys, Easton and Preston. My husband and I have been married
for seven years. My husband is a CPA and loves Volkswagen cars. My hobbies
include photography, cooking, going to the beach and traveling. I have been
skydiving, snorkeling in the Caribbean, hiking in Ethiopia, working in orphanages
in Kenya and Uganda, and site seeing in London and Paris.
