Welcome to Mrs. Balch's Site!!

Hello!  My name is Mrs. Balch and I am a fifth grade teacher at Yacks Elementary.  There is no other place I would rather be than where I am today; I absolutely love being able to help my students understand concepts and develop a passion for learning! I graduated from Oakland University in 2005 with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education; my major was Science and my minor was Language Arts.  I received a Master's Degree in Reading and Language Arts Instruction through Oakland University in 2009.  I thoroughly enjoy teaching my students the joys of reading and writing. My goal is to ensure that every student who walks into my classroom feels that they have joined a community of learners all working together to succeed!
