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 mchoi1@cps.edu.
