Welcome to Fourth Grade
My name is Janet Melcher and I'm very excited about the upcoming 2021-2022 school year. I am looking forward to exploring distance learning and providing a rewarding and engaging virtual experience for your child. I find it hard to believe that I'm entering my 35th year of teaching. I spent the first ten years of my career teaching 5th and 6th grade Learning and Emotional Support at Upper Merion Middle School. I have spent the past 25 years teaching fourth grade at Roberts Elementary School.
I'm dual certified in Elementary Education and Special Education, and I am also certified as a Reading Specialist. I received my B.S. degree in Elementary and Special Education from Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas. I received my M.ED. from Cabrini College in Wayne, PA. Continuing my professional development is a high priority to me, so I attend conferences and workshops at every opportunity. I've spent four summers attending institutes at Columbia University on the teaching of writing and the teaching of reading.I love to read and write in my notebook daily. In my free time, you will find me cooking a special meal for my family and friends, hiking on a nature trail or traveling.I love my job and teaching fourth grade is the best! I'm looking forward to a wonderful year.
