Hi! I have been teaching for 9 years now. I taught Kindergarten for 7 years and just finished my 2nd year in 5th grade. I love children and watching them learn! I love pets, especially dogs. My 11 year old dalmatian named Patch passed on to the Rainbow Bridge on 5-9-08. He was my world, my life, my child! I love doing everything on the computer and learning more and more each day! I collect dalmatians, lighthouses, key chains, and magnets!
