Get+to+Know+Mrs.+W.



My name is Cheryl Wasserman and I work full-time at Cumberland Elementary School in Des Plaines School District 62. This is my fouth year teaching 5th grade at Cumberland and I am really exited about our school year! Before teaching 5th grade, I worked as an ELL Resource Teacher for students in grades K-5. I have been teaching at Cumberland school since August 2007. Before I had my children, I taught 1st grade and 5th grade in Round Lake School District 116. I am committed to lifelong learning. In August 2008, I completed my Master's in Curriculum & Instruction from National-Louis University. In March 2010, I completed a Certificate of Advanced Study in Administration and Supervision from National-Louis University. I spent a lot of my time this summer reading professional books about teaching and many children's books that will appeal to all levels of readers.

 I also spent time with my boys. Actually, they really didn't want to be with me as much as I wanted to be with them. Seth is starting his senior year of high school and Noah will be a sophomore. You might remember my boys playing in a band called Precision on one of the last days of school. They are both very musical and my house is always filled with music and/or barking. Lily (a Bichon Frise) and Sammy (a Golden Retriever) make our family complete. I have to mention Mr. Bob too. He's my husband and he helps me with everything.

Check out all my pictures and video clips below to find out more about me and my family.
