Budding Blog Linky

My school has a big fundraiser tomorrow. 

It's called the Tiger Trot.

There is a 5K and a 1 mile run.

I'm so excited to run the one mile with my daughter.

I'll try and post some pictures tomorrow.

 

I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll make this post short.

I'm linking up with Jess from I {Heart} Recess.

It is a linky for those of us who are relatively new to the blogging world.



 

1. Why did you start blogging?

I was following quite a few blogs and loved reading about all the different teaching ideas.

My teammates always seem to like my ideas, so I decided to share them with others.

My blog has now become a way for me to reflect on my teaching

and find ways to make myself a better teacher.

2. What is your favorite subject to teach and why?

I LOVE to teach math.  In college, I started as a math major.

Pre-calculus was too hard, so I moved down to elementary school.

Math is my favorite because I love the challenge of solving a problem.

I enjoy hearing about the different ways kids solve problems

and then comparing their strategies to mine.

3. Describe your teaching style.

I'm not sure that I can explain my style.

It's all over the place.

I try to create and teach in a fun way that will

have the kids involved in their own learning.

I prefer to stay away from the worksheets that come

with our math and reading series.

My goal for next year is to incorporate more technology

to help my students learn.

4. Give three interesting facts about you.

- I was on the pom pom squad in high school.

- I don't like to perform/speak in front of people.

- I'm a great cook, but only if there is a recipe to follow.

5. Do you have a TpT store? If yes, post the link :)
