Welcome to Funny First Grade! I'm Lynda Davis. My teaching career began in Kindergarten where I spent three years. Then, for fifteen years, I taught First and Second Grade which I LOVED because of the hands-on learning the kiddos experience... but for as long as I can remember, I've wanted to teach writing composition... so I moved to Fifth and Sixth Grade. For twelve years, I enjoyed every minute of teaching English Language Arts! Currently, I am a University Supervisor of student-teacher interns. Teaching and helping others - no matter what age - is such a personally rewarding career; I wouldn't want to spend my life any other way! :)
Engaging the kiddos with fun, hands-on learning activities is - by far - my preferred style of teaching!
