I have taught for 26 years in a rural, K-12 self contained public school in Alabama. I have taught first grade, third grade, and currently teach kindergarten. I love what I do!
I am creative and fun in the classroom, but still structured most of the time =)
I have my National Board Certification in Literacy: Reading–Language Arts. I have also achieved National Board in Early Childhood in the past.
I have a Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education.
I am a wife and mother of three...and I *love* reading mysteries! Visit my blog: firstandkinderblueskies.com {firstgradeblueskies.com}.
