Third Grade with Mrs. Klinge!

Welcome to third grade with Mrs. Klinge! This year, I will guide my students in exploring their passions, playing an active role in their learning, and making new discoveries.  Through the power of positivity and the use of a growth mindset, we will achieve our goals and reach success! This will be my 10th year teaching in the Solana Beach School District, and my first year teaching at Carmel Creek Elementary.  As a product of the Solana Beach School District myself, I am extremely proud to be a part of this learning community now as a teacher (instead of a student).  Below are some of my favorites, so you can start to get to know what makes me, me!

A FEW OF MY FAVORITES...

• Colors: Mustard yellow & olive green
• Music: Folk, bluegrass, indie, & hip-hop
• Artist: Frida Kahlo
• Poet: Shel Silverstein
• Food: Avocado toast, sushi, & burritos
• Movie: The Labyrinth
• Hobbies: ALL arts & crafts, reading, volunteering, hiking, and spending time with my husband and our many animals (see their cute pics below!)
• Scents: Lavender & Rose

Please feel free to contact me through Parent Square or by email (toriklinge@sbsd.net) throughout the school year, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
