Douglas, Ms

Ms. Douglas
2nd grade
Room 203 		At P.S. 8 since: 1988

Ms.Douglas

If you are ever in the 2nd floor corridor, listen for the sound of singing. The chances are it will be coming from Ms. Douglas' room; she loves to use song and rhyme to teach the kids. When asked how long she has been teaching, Ms. Douglas' response, with a wry smile, is "all my life."

Ms. Douglas has been at PS8 for 20 years. Don't be fooled into thinking that her teaching methods are old-fashioned. In fact, quite the opposite is true. Ms. Douglas is a lifelong student and spends much of her spare time reading about the latest research and thinking on the best ways to educate children. After so many years she still loves what she does, especially watching her young charges soak up information "like sponges." She also says they continually surprise her with their creativity. In her spare time, Ms. Douglas likes to sew.
