Shelby Sego
6th Grade
Room 122
Hello!
My name is Shelby Sego and I am a 6th Grade Teacher for Spencer Elementary School. This is my first year teaching in my own classroom. Previously, I was the Full Time Elementary substitute teacher for all of the Spencer-Owen schools. I graduated recently from Western Governors University of Indiana with a Masters in Elementary Education. I have prior experience working as an Inclusion Aide as well as a part time substitute teacher in the Bloomington area. I am excited to be working with students and getting the opportunity to teach them all that they need to know!
I also graduated from Indiana University in 2014 with a Bachelors in General Studies and a Minor Music Studies. I enjoy listening to old vinyl records as well as new hit singles. My other hobbies include singing, cooking, travelling, and spending time with my family and friends.
Expectations of Behavior, Work, & Attendance
Come prepared to work and learn: Prepared means that lessons have been submitted before class starting at 8:20 a.m., all supplies for the day are available for you (paper, pencil, computer), daily check-in for/attendance is complete before 8:20 a.m., and that you have visited the restroom and filled your water bottle, if needed.
Mindset is critical: *You can learn. Whether something is challenging you or not, you can always learn. *To persevere when you are frustrated is the sign of a person with phenomenal GRIT...that's fantastic! *Find ways to challenge yourself. * We all learn when we fail. You just need to dig within yourself to learn from your mistakes. * Always try your hardest...whether work is challenging or simple for you. * Your effort and attitude determine much of your outcome.
Attendance: On days you are expected to be present on Google Meet, you will need to be logged in & ready to learn by 8:20 a.m. This means work has been submitted and the check-in form completed by 8:20. If you are absent, complete the work listed within all of the Google Classrooms for the day. As with in-person school, you have one day for each day absent to submit work. A parent/guardian should let me know of an absence.
Late Work: Any work not submitted on time will make it more challenging to move forward and be an active participant in class. Work will only be accepted within a week of the due date. If you submit something late (or if you've submitted from being absent- not late), you complete the Late/Missing Work Form specifically telling me what you have submitted.
Absent Work: You have however many days you missed to complete any work from when you were absent. If you missed one day, you have one day to complete the work from the day you were absent. Work will only be accepted within a week of the due date. If you submit something late (or if you've submitted from being absent- not late), you complete the Late/Missing Work Form or Make-Up Absent Form specifically telling me what you have submitted.
Behavior: *actively participate *answer questions *volunteer *be polite *respect your classmates
