Bonjour/Good day Cougar families!

Our names are Mme Roach and Mme Killam and we will be your grade 7 FI Math and
PDCP teachers this year at QMS.

Note from Mme Roach:

I am originally from Bathurst, NB and have taught in the Anglophone North,

East, and South Districts. I am very excited to be back in the classroom this year
with all of you. My oldest son is 4 years old (just started pre-kindergarten this year)
and my youngest little guy is turning 2 in October. They both are very, very busy but
love to learn – just like their mom!

Even though I have enjoyed my time with both of them this summer immensely,
I am excited to dive back into the math classroom and to work with the Grade 7
students at QMS! I enjoy playing golf, playing and coaching volleyball, as well as
anything that keeps me and my family active. Math is my passion and I can’t wait to
embark on this journey through the grade 7 FI Math Curriculum with all of you!

Note from Mme Killam:

I am originally from Fredericton, NB, but have been living and teaching in the
Saint John area for 15 years. I am happy to be settled in Quispamsis with my husband
and young son.

I have a background in Psychology with an MEd in Exceptional Learners. I have

taught in the Anglophone South and Anglophone West school districts and have been a
middle-level Math teacher my entire career. In addition to classroom teaching, I have
been a Math Mentor & Coach for other teachers as well as a Resource & Methods
teacher.

I enjoy reading, singing, cooking and spending time with family. I am thrilled to
be partnering with Mme Roach in Grade 7 Math at QMS this year!
 Our math class will be divided into many different learning outcomes and
includes activities such as: mental math, journal writing, group work activities, problem
solving, math focused vocabulary, formative and summative quizzes, and tests.
Students and families can always stay connected through email and MOST
IMPORTANTLY follow along on our website at: www.math7roach.weebly.com

The website will highlight all of our activities, lessons from the day, and any
important information that the student may have missed or misunderstood throughout
the year. You will find our contact information on our website; the best way to get
ahold of us quickly being through email or the website.

Thank you so much for allowing us to participate in your child’s learning and we
look forward to meeting all of you!
