Hi! My name is Ms. Shoger, and I am your Third grade ELA and Social Studies teacher. This is my twelfth year at Gavilan Peak, and my nineteenth year of teaching third grade. I have also taught three years of fourth grade. This is my twenty-second year of teaching! 

I was born and raised in Arizona, and have degrees from Arizona State University and Northern Arizona University.  My son is also a graduate of Northern Arizona University, majoring in Management and Finance.  He is a Program Finance Manager for an aerospace and defense company.  I enjoy having family nearby.

One of my favorite subjects to teach is Reading. I love that, in third grade, we shift from “Learning to Read” to “Reading to Learn”.  We also learn to write multi-paragraph essays, and write in cursive.

Third-graders also study Arizona History.  State 48 is unique, and we will enjoy learning about our state, together. 

It is going to be an exciting year. I look forward to getting to know each one of you!
