Sue Naught-Teacher

Let me take this opportunity to introduce myself to the new Little Sprouts community.

My name is Sue Naught (sometimes called Suzi) and I presently live in Bella Vista. I moved here four years ago with my husband who had accepted a new position within the Bentonville area. We moved from Cleveland, OH where I taught K thru 5th grade for six years.

I was raised in Bisbee, Arizona and I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Education accompanied by a minor degree in Art Education. I also have completed some graduate studies in Special Education at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, GA.

Teaching has taken me to several major cities in the midwest and south. Among them are Chicago, IL, Atlanta, GA, Memphis, TN. Lexington, KY and Charleston, SC. My work experience is extensive, ranging from PreK thru 8th grade. Preschool is my all time favorite class to teach. As parents, I’m certain you will agree that early childhood is the most teachable, loveable age there is.

I look forward to being a part of Little Sprouts Learning Center and together, we will have a fabulous year watching your lil’ sprouts grow!

The Little Sprouts Field Trip 11/5/10

The kids LOVED the cow!
Then, the cow came out to visit us!
After the library, we went to Chick-Fil-A for lunch. We even got some stuffed cows while we were there!
The mommies did a great job helping out too!
Working hard on their trees. . .
Next, they had a craft set up for us to do. We made some trees and added some fall leaves with paint.
Bubbles, bubbles, everywhere!!!
Ms. Sue Ann did a fabulous job reading to our kids!
Our "Sprouts" getting ready for story time!
They had all kinds of neat fish in there. . . even Nemo!
The fish tank was a BIG hit!
The first thing the kids did was to check out their artwork on display at the Bentonville Public Library.
