My
name is Angie and I'm a 4th grade teacher. I have spent the last 17
years working in a classroom, however, just completed my first year as a
licensed teacher. I taught preschool and worked as an assistant to the
teacher and loved every minute of it! A few years ago, I was diagnosed
with Triple Negative breast cancer and once my treatment was done, I sat
on the beach and made the decision to return to school to complete my
degree and become a teacher. 2 weeks later, my school system began a
program to put their assistants through school for their degrees. I
jumped at the chance and here I am. One year down and many more to
come.
I
have 4 beautiful children and I am a soccer jersey washing, spares and
strikes watching, 5 k cheering, dance mom. On top of that, I am married
to a wonderfully supportive husband and go to school in the evening to
work towards my Master's. My schedule is pretty crazy, but I do love it.
This blog is a journal of this journey. I welcome feedback as I try to
gain a strong foot in the classroom.
I
love to read and shop and my favorite place to be is on the beach. I
thought about bringing the beach into my class, but I think I just want
to keep it separate for now as my own little oasis to escape to. My
favorite sport is soccer and I'm a Manchester United fan and DC United
fan. Second would have to be football and I'm a cheesehead through and
through!!
