Connie Nakagawa, 4th grade

My name is Connie Nakagawa.  I really enjoy teaching 4th grade.  I have been at LeGette since 1977 (when my daughter enrolled in kindergarten).  Originally, I was an instructional aid who was encouraged to return to school and get my teaching credential.  I recently completed my masters in education with an emphasis in technology. My hobbies include sewing, crocheting, and crafts.  I really like Japanese food.  My favorite color is blue.  Math is one of my stronger areas to teach, and finding ways to integrate art across the curriculum is challenging (but I somehow get it done).  Having performed in the “Up With People” group as a teenager adds a musical touch to my style.  My son, Jerry, and my daughter, Cindi, give me lots of encouragement and help around the classroom.  I frequently explore historic sites of California over the breaks.
