Mary YoshibaKindergarten InclusionKindergarten Diverse Learners Teacher
Room 226 Hello! Thank you for visiting my page! I grew up in West Rogers Park and attended Chicago Public Schools PreK-High School! I have attended Stockton, Daniel Boone, Taft Academic Center, and Lincoln Park High School. I have always been interested in the arts, taking ballet, art, and music classes throughout my educational years. Now, I enjoy taking various art classes to continue spending time exploring the creative world. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2012 and received a Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education with a Special Education Approval. In 2014, I received my English as a Second Language Endorsement. I began my teaching journey in 2013 at Emiliano Zapata Academy as an Early Childhood Education Special Education Teacher for my first 4 years in grades PreK-1. I absolutely cherish these first years that have solidified my calling of teaching the little ones. I continued my teaching journey closer to home from 2018, joining Bateman Elementary. I am thrilled to be part of this community that advocates for inclusion classrooms PreK-8th grade. Outside of school and in my free time, I enjoy traveling with my husband and friends, eating savory and sweet foods, board games, puzzles, and arts and craft projects. |

For the 2022-2023 school year, I will be the dual co-teacher in room 108 and 110. I will be the inclusion teacher and co-teacher with Ms. Vazquez and Ms. Correa. I am so excited to be working in Kindergarten and First Grade this school year! I look forward to working with our kindergarten and first grade students to prepare them to be life long learners and successful in their communities. As Bateman moves towards a fully inclusive school many more students will be seeing two teachers in their classroom! What an exciting year! Please don't hesitate to email me with any questions or concerns at [email protected].
