Mrs. Heidi Braatz

4 Year Old Kindergarten

My name is Heidi Braatz.  I am a UW Stout graduate and am certified to teach Pre K-sixth grade. 

I am married.  Mike and I have three daughters.  Grace is 9, Emma is 6, and Marcella is 1.

I taught preschool for five years in a private school in Eagan, MN before staying home to raise my daughters.  After 7 years at home, I returned to work at St. Joseph’s as the 3 yr old preschool teacher.  I am currently in my second year teaching the 4K class.

The children are actively involved in learning through play and interacting with their classmates and teachers.  Sensory, art, science, writing, small manipulative and dramatic play centers are available to explore daily.  Each day begins with large group time.  We participate in singing, sharing and listening activities and games.  Small group time is designed to focus on a particular skill or concept each day.

St. Joseph’s 4K classroom is a fun, friendly, active place for your child to explore, learn and grow.
