Gender Female
Industry Education
Occupation English teacher
Location Illinois, United States
Introduction Welcome to my blogs! I'm an English teacher, so, of course, I love to read. As a teacher who won't be retiring in the next few years (I have about fifteen to go), I know that I have to make changes in my classroom--how I teach and what I teach. I decided that for one blog I would share the books that I have read and my thoughts about those books. More recently, I decided to share the "A-Ha!" moments that I have had while adjusting my curriculum for the Common Core Standards.
Interests Taking graduate classes--I will have 36 hours past my MA after fall 2012. Someday I will enroll in a Ph.D. program. . .
Favorite Movies Say Anything, Breakfast Club, St. Elmo's Fire, The Great Gatsby (with Robert Redford)
