Mrs. Anderson - Reading Specialist

Hello! I am Terry Anderson, and I am the County Literacy Teacher. I collaborate with teachers in all grades, but my main focus is the primary levels (Pre-K to 2) to promote the learning and implementation of best practices in literacy instruction. I also work with children in small groups in and out of the classroom to develop stronger reading strategies and comprehension skills. I have been teaching for 32 years in AA Co with 20 of those years being a Literacy Teacher. I graduated from State University of NY with a BS in elementary education and furthered my studies by completing my master’s degree at Johns Hopkins University in Administration, Special & Gifted Education. My additional master’s certification in Literacy Education came from Goucher University-I like to see myself as a lifelong learner.

I live with my husband and three golden retrievers (Harley, Murphy and Juno) in Lothian, MD. My two children have grown up and moved on to jobs and lives of their own. My daughter Katie works for the National Park Foundation and my son Matthew works Environmental/Flood Control in Houston, Texas.

I enjoy many outdoor activities: hiking, kayaking, and biking. I also love reading a good book on the beach looking at the ocean. I am looking forward to an amazing school year!
