2nd Grade Teacher- Room 210

Hi Cameron Family!!

My name is Amanda DeDecker and I have been teaching for 18 years. I am originally from Wisconsin but have been living in Chicago for the past 19 years. I absolutely love the city but am not a Bears fan, GO PACK! I do love to support all the other Chicago teams!

I love being a part of the Cameron community and truly enjoy when my old students come to my classroom to visit. I teach 2nd grade and love to incorporate the arts and student interests into my teaching. I am very passionate about meeting my students’ needs and ensuring they feel loved and supported in my classroom.

I also love spending time with my family and friends. I have three children of my own and I like to read and explore the city with them. We love to visit parks, museums, play spaces and restaurants. My favorite foods are tacos, donuts and watermelon. I also love animals, with owls being my favorite, you will see them all over my classroom!
