- What grade do you teach?
- K-5 Library
- What are your favorite read-alouds?
- So many great read-aloud books out there it's hard to name just a few. I love A Bad Case of Stripes by Shannon, In November by Cynthia Rylant, Stellaluna by Janell Cannon, Two Bad Ants by Chris Van Allsburg. The list goes on.
- What are your favorite "professional" book?
- I'm a big fan of Ralph Fletcher. I've read most of his books. He has picture books for children too! I love Georgia Heard too. Her writing really moves me as well has her ideas. I just purchased Strategies that Work by Stephanie Harvey and Anne Goudvis. It came with a down loadable study guide. Any one interested in a study group?
- Here is your chance to wax on about yourself, your wonderful class, and more. What makes you tick?
- What makes me tick? My daughters bring such joy to my life and remind me to laugh at the little stresses--like when the dinner plate falls on the newly washed floor and Marlee announces, "Accidents happen!" They are the source of my joy and inspiration for my journal writing.
I love to read--especially children's books. The problem is finding time to sit and read!
Three years ago I decided to try something new. I picked up a guitar and took four lesson. Now, I play and sing all the time to my students and my daughters. I discovered that when your determined you can teach an old dog new tricks. I love to play any chance I get.

Not to push you into the pool too quickly, but if you ever have time, consider sharing lists of books for various units of study. I would be happy to create a new area in the "resources" section for each unit of study.
Once again, welcome!
