This is my 18th year in the classroom and my 5th year in third grade.  I have to say that, out of all the grades I have taught, I do believe that third is my favorite!  I have a B.S. in Early Childoon and a Masters in Educational Leadership.  I have been married to my husband, Sam, since July 2011.  We have 2 dogs named Stella and Ernie.  They are a mess!  I love to cook and travel.  To date I have visited 23 of the 50 states, but I want to see them all!  (Alaska is a definite Bucket List item!!)
