I have wrangled kittens, er, I mean taught Kindergarten in the public school system for over a decade
Lots of love, lots of giggles -- silly + strict (aka reasonably high expectations) --- I believe in developmentally appropriate education, with lots of movement and hands-on activities
I was never teacher of the year or anything like that... I was nominated once...does that count?
I received my BS in Elementary and Early Childhood Education from Kennesaw State University -- I am Orton-Gillingham trained -- I hold a reading endorsement certificate
I am a mama of a 14 yr old girl and 1 year old baby boy- and they're equally as feisty! -- I am currently on a teaching-hiatus while I take care of the baby!
