North Star Elementary School teacher Amber Linn
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) North Star Elementary School fourth-grade teacher Amber Linn was recently honored as a state finalist for the Presidential Award for Math and Science Teaching, the highest recognition that teachers receive for outstanding teaching in the areas of science, technology, engineering, math or computer science.
“I’m excited to be recognized for doing something I love: teaching math and finding ways to reach students from all backgrounds and understanding levels with the wonderful and often complex, concepts found in fourth grade mathematics,” Linn said.
To be considered for the award, Linn drafted a comprehensive write-up explaining her approach for outstanding teaching. She also put together a lesson explaining the relationship between fractions and decimals and was filmed throughout the one-hour lesson by her friend and colleague, Bend-La Pine Schools math coach Kerry Morton.
