Hello student's this is Mrs. Choate. 

Hello to my new amazing 7th grade students. I am your 7th grade math teacher on Team Extreme this year. This will be my 29th year teaching at Arroyo Seco. I have taught both 8th and 7th grade math over the years, 7th grade is my favorite.

I grew up in Minnesota loving the lakes in the summer and snow in the winter. When I graduated from Augustana University in Sioux Falls, SD I took a job teaching in California. My parents drove me across the country to help me start my career. I quickly feel in love with California and stayed. I earned my Masters degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Cal State Bakersfield in 2003.

My amazing husband, Mike Choate and I have two beautiful children, now all grown up. My children thrived at Arroyo Seco as students and went on to enjoy high school at Saugus and West Ranch. Our son Blake, is 25 and a full time beach lifeguard in Oceanside, CA. Our daughter Kayla, is a graduate of the University of Oregon, GO DUCKS. She is now a marketing director and even coordinator for Portland American Business Journal. She will start her masters degree at the Portland campus at U of Oregon in the fall.

My new hobby is crocheting. I have made over 50 blankets in 3 years. I encourage students to join my crochet club.  We will meet at lunch on Tuesdays in my room when clubs begin.

I am the person you can trust to help you succeed in school and in life. So let’s get to know each other this year, while we learn math together.

My goal is to create meaningful relationships with each of you. I strive for a classroom with positive interactions. I want you to think of me as your math coach this year. We will use my wall whiteboards, group activities as well as the textbook and IXL program to do our math practice together each day. 

Parents please be your child's guide to success, but leave the hard learning stuff up to them, they can do it if they put their mind to it.

 

I look forward to a great year,

Lise M. Choate

 

 

Work hard in math, learn more about one another and have fun doing it. 
Junior High is a new and exciting time of your life. 
Always remember to do your best!
Remember your success depends on YOU!

Parents, I know from experience that communication is key. Please take the time to find out what your child is learning and find ways to help.  If you have concerns please contact me and I will be happy to help in any way possible.

Thank you, Mrs. Choate
