My name is Aubrey Howell. I grew up in South Jordan, but now I live in Riverton with my husband and son. I attended Brigham Young University from 2003-2007. In April 2007, I married my best friend, Britton. We now have a son, Briggs, born in April 2012, who is the light of our lives. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, spending time with family & friends, singing, and crafting.
I have a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from BYU. Most of my student teaching and cohort work was completed in kindergarten classrooms. After my kindergarten student teaching, I applied for and accepted an internship at Jordan Ridge Elementary in South Jordan. What’s funny is…I actually went to Jordan Ridge Elementary as a student. It was different (a gooddifferent) being there as a teacher instead of a student. It was my 2nd grade teacher at Jordan Ridge who instilled the love of learning in me and who inspired me to be a teacher.
At Jordan Ridge, I taught 2nd grade for two years and then moved to a 3rd grade teaching position. I am currently teaching my 5th year in 3rd grade. I love to teach and have learned so much in these past 7 years. Some of my favorite subjects to teach are reading and music. I love reading stories to my students and making literature connections to the world and to their imaginations. I love teaching songs to help students remember things and to experience the fun that music can bring into their lives.
Being a teacher has helped me be a better parent by using the skills I have learned in my teaching career. I am excited to be a part of your children’s lives as I spend time teaching and helping them develop a love of learning.
