Meet The Teacher
The First Grade Parade is hosting a linky party so I thought I would join in! I am new to the blogging community and I am loving all of the great ideas that I have found.
Here is some info about me...
I have been teaching for 3.5 years. My first year I taught special needs preschool and then I graduated on to kindergarten. I taught half day kindergarten for 1 year and then our building transitioned to full day kindergarten. I am currently working on obtaining my masters in literacy. I am 1.5 classes away plus a research project. I hope to be done by December of this year.
I grew up in a small town in northwest Ohio. I have 3 sisters and 2 nieces and a nephew. After high school I went to college in Dayton, Ohio. Right after that I married my high school sweetheart, Ben. Here is a picture of us at my sisters wedding.
A year after we bought our house we adopted this cute pup...Sandy! She is the best dog ever!
Now for the Q & A

Now tell us one random thing about yourself:
I teach 5 year olds and I eat like a five year old! You will not get me to try veggies...except corn and green beans. I love pizza, chicken nuggets, and mac and cheese! Everyone makes fun of me but what can I say, I'm a super duper picky eater!

Hi, just found your blog :)
We have a ton of things in common: both teach K, both getting/got masters in literacy, both went on our honeymoon to Hawaii hehe. Oh yeah, and my name is Kelly, but that might be your last name haha.
Professional organizer is totally a job!! A lot of people don't know how to organize! I would love to be a professional organizer too :) Are you still teaching special needs? I am a special ed teacher in Kindergarten right now :)

I just stumbled upon your blog and am so excited to see someone else who is as picky of an eater as me! I am also currently getting my Masters in Literacy, but you are a lot further along than I am! I hope you finish up in December as planned :)
I just stumbled across your blog via Pinterest and it's so funny how much we have in common. I'm currently a SAHM because I have two young boys, but used to teach 2nd grade (I sub at my son's preschool now). I am/was terrified of tornadoes too and have a major McDonald's DC addiction. I love all of your literacy station work and appreciate that you're sharing it here. Oh, and my husband and I adopted a yellow lab named Cooper right after we got married and secretly I want to be a professional organizer. :)
