I am a second year teacher and I am loving every minute! {Almost every minute anyway!} =) I love teaching first grade and I am enjoying getting settled into my own teaching styles and learning more all the time!
I like to teach with lots of interactive activities, games, and fun! I love problem-based learning with lots of discussion, and I love a good read-aloud. {Who doesn't?!}
No official honors or awards yet! =)
I have a Bachelor's of Science in Elementary Education from the University of Missouri - Columbia and a Masters of Education in Curriculum and Instruction from Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri.
I am just getting started designing my own stuff and loving it! I live in Columbia, a perfect little town in MO, with my husband, our cat, and our two snakes. More than anything I love to spend time with my closest friends and to curl up with a good book and read for hours. I also just adore our church and love to hang out there. I love playing board games as well, and I *might* be slightly obsessed with Once Upon a Time {and fairy tales in general}. =)
