Been working at home today. Watching the Olympics and creating flip charts, what could be better.



this is my Scholastic site. I just had to add something today.

WBT Webinar tonight! I am SOOOO excited!

OHHH Mamma!! I am getting excited!

Today we had a working lunch to discuss our school year. It was so nice to see everyone again!

My classroom is almost ready. Just a few minor organizational tasks and some decorating left to finish. I think I will NOT go in tomorrow since it is my last official day off before the start of our school year. It's going to take a lot to keep me home I'm afraid. I really want to go in and piddle around. There will be lots of time for that during the next 180 days. :)

My First Post!

Hi!  Welcome to my first attempt at a blog. I have really enjoyed reading blogs so much that I decided it was time to try blogging myself. 

I am a Special Education teacher from Missouri.  I have a classroom that contains kindergartners through second graders.  This is my first year teaching Sp Ed so it will be a learning experience for me as well as my aides and students.  I am looking forward to it! 

In the past I have taught 3rd grade, 2nd grade, and Reading Recovery/Title I Reading.  I have my Bachelor's Degree in teaching birth through 6th grade.  My Master's Degree is in teaching reading and writing.

I currently have a project up on Donors Choose.  Check it out at the link below!
