=About Me=

My name is Penny Gordon, Kalman is my maiden name. I was born and brought up in Malden; attending Glenwood, Beebe, and MHS. I also went to the University of Rhode Island for my Education degree and later graduated from Cambridge College for my Master's Degree. I was fortunate to obtain a long-term substitute position the first year the Salemwood School opened and have been there for twelve years. I have taught 6th grade Science, ELA, Health, Reading, and Social Studies. Currently, I teach 6th grade Social Studies, ** World Geography **, to five classes a day. I truly enjoy learning ways to help motivate my students and keep current in the realm of technology. Many of my students do not have access to a computer at home nor do they have computer classes at school due to their interventions. Therefore, classroom teachers are assuming the position of not only teaching the frameworks but also technology skills.
