Hello!
As one of the newest faces on Sunset Boulevard, I thought a brief letter of introduction might be needed. My
name is Jackie Klein, and I am student teaching this quarter under the guidance of Ms. Keller. I am a senior at
Drake University, majoring in secondary education with endorsements in English, speech, and theatre.
A bit of background on myself: I originally hail from Sheldon, a small town in northwest Iowa. There I got an
education from some dedicated teachers who inspired me to go into the profession. I also had an abundance
of theatrical opportunities while attending Sheldon High, which fueled my passion for the performing arts.
Outside of school, my interests vary greatly. I am, of course, an avid reader and am always looking for
recommendations. I enjoy cooking, but have not yet mastered how to make a meal for fewer than eight people.
Thankfully my fianc Kian enjoys leftovers, and my family (consisting of my mum, dad, sister, and brother-inlaw) visits often.
Since attending Drake, I have been instructed by some phenomenal professors. However, nothing replaces the
experience that one gets in the classroom. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity and look forward to
beginning a new chapter!
Best,
Miss Klein

Good afternoon!
Just thought I'd send a quick reminder to students (and parents) that the big end-of-unit test for our short
story unit is this week. We will take it in two parts to avoid overwhelming students; Thursday will be strictly
definitions of literary elements and Friday will be application of those same elements.
Students have resources available on Google Classroom. Ms. Keller's contains the study guide and definitions,
whereas mine has all of our in-class practice completed up to this point. Although we will spend a day of
reviewing together as a class (Wednesday), students are encouraged to individually review using these
resources.
If there are any questions or concerns, please let me know! Thanks!
Best,
Miss Klein
