Hello families!  My name is Erica Culver and I teach 3rd grade at Cynthia Mann Elementary.  This is my second year teaching 3rd grade and I absolutely LOVE IT!!  Previously, I have taught Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade.  This is my 10th year teaching here in Boise.  I earned my Bachelor's degree from Whitworth University with an emphasis in English.  My favorite subjects to teach are reading and social studies.  I love to watch children learn how to read for deeper meaning, and discover the world around them! 

My husband and I have 4 children: a 13 year old son, an 11 year old daughter, a 7 year old daughter, and a 4 month old son.  My family and I enjoy spending the day at the park or exploring new places.  In my spare time I love to bake, read, and travel!

I am looking forward to a wonderful school year!!
