Hidee ho!

I've broken over! I've been blogging on my personal blog for years, have a giveaway blog and a blog for my own spiritual thoughts, but now I'm getting started in a new realm: a blog about my work! I've found numerous fantastic blogs out there about reading and specifically about different grades, and I thought I could do this, too! :)

So jump on in, enjoy!! I know I'm going to, as well!

A little about me: I have been teaching for 15 years, and will start my 16th year in the fall. I taught visually impaired children for two years, and then started teaching first grade, which I taught for the next 12! The past two years I have taught as a Reading Specialist after completing my Master's Degree in Reading. I cannot imagine doing anything else than teaching!I truly feel as though it is my calling and my mission field! It is likely that I will have to go back the classroom in the next few years because of budget difficulties, but I'm enjoying my resource-type work while I can. If/when I have to go back to the classroom, I think I would enjoy teaching in the 2nd-4th grade range, but we'll see!

OK, NOW enjoy your foray into my teaching and learning!
