It is my pleasure to recommend Ashleigh Boettger for a position in the Lansing School District. I am working with Ashleigh this semester at Pattengill Middle Years, a fourth through sixth grade program. Ashleigh is completing her special education placement for her internship year. She works with sixth graders as a special education teacher that provides instruction and interventions in a resource room and pushes in to assist and adapt curriculum for students in the general education setting. Ashleigh works well with a variety of students with different needs, IEP goals and accommodations. She understands the importance of creating a positive classroom culture, building relationships with students, and discovering their likes and dislikes. When speaking to students, she is calm, respectful, gives specific praise, and redirects them in a polite manner when necessary. Ashleigh has created class wide and individual structures to monitor behaviors. Ashleigh values ongoing parent communication for students having a great or challenging day. Ashleigh does a great job at understanding and teaching the curriculum to her students. She approaches instruction with various strategies to meet students diverse needs, goals and intelligences. On a daily basis, students often receive whole class, small group, guided, or individualized instruction and witness modeling and coaching. Ashleigh has had specific experience with planning for guided reading and writing units and math interventions. She holds one-on-one conferences with her students and maintains up- to- date assessment data to monitor student growth toward goals and the understanding of content through various formative or summative assessments. Ashleigh would be an asset to any school community. She always displays professionalism, works well with other staff members and welcomes opportunities presented to her. Currently, Ashleigh meets with General Education teachers as needed to offer interventions and accommodations to support their students. She attends and contributes to IEPs, professional development meetings, PBIS meetings, SIT meetings, C3 (Community, Culture &Climate Anti Bullying Committee) and assists with administering assessments required by the district to the entire school. I highly recommend Ashleigh Boettger for a teaching position in our school district. She is dedicated to educating students in an urban setting and helping them reach their full potential. Ashleighs ideas and suggestions are well received and she will be sure to bring positive growth for all of the children she works with in the future. Sincerely,
Nichole VanDellen 6th Grade Special Education teacher 517-755-5891 Pattengill Mi ddl e Year s 6 26 Marshall St Lansi ng , MI 48 91 2
