I am a 4th grade teacher in Englewood. I have been teaching for 11 years. I teach all subjects (reading, writing, math, science, social studies). Something I look forward to every year is hatching chicken eggs in class. I love chickens!

1 BIG idea to implement on Monday:

Once my students have their school email addresses and password I will begin discussion boards online. I will create a Wikispace for my students to go into and communicate with other classmates on a particular topic that I post. I will begin teaching them the steps on what to do in class by showing them on the projector and they will each have their laptop.
