I grew up in the small town of Plattsburg, Missouri, located north of Kansas City. After high school, I attended Truman State University in Kirksville. There I earned a Bachelor of Arts in English, followed by a Master of Arts in Education. After completing my student teaching, and interviewing like crazy I settled down to teach Middle School at a private Catholic school in Saint Joseph, MO.
I am about to start my 3rd year and I love my school and students. I am always looking for more ways to challenge and inspire them. I love integrating technology into my classes and am always willing to try something new.
One of my biggest struggles as a new educator is finding ways to stay structured and organized. I created this blog to help keep track of my efforts, my triumphs, and failures and hopefully help someone else in the process.
So proud of you Jessica! Staying organized is a constant battle for me as well. Our job is chaotic, ever changing and mind boggling! A wise woman once told me, "On the day I retire, I will discover an easier way to do something and wonder why I didn't figure that one out sooner." Can you guess the name of that wise woman?
