Biographical Sketch

I have always thought it would be fun to be a teacher. Through the years as I helped my own children with their homework or volunteered in their classrooms and in the PTA I would have in the back of my mind what a great profession educating would be. I loved working with the children and enjoyed seeing their successes. I began to notice how rewarding it was to be a good teacher that is filled with excitement and ready to teach not daunted by the disappointments and obstacles that can happen along the way.
When I chose to go back to college I knew what I wanted to be right away and have wasted no time in taking the generals and pre-requisites I needed to be able to accomplish my goal. I am assertive, fun and animated when it comes to teaching kids. My enthusiasm for learning is contagious and it is demonstrated when I am teaching children. I want to be the kind of teacher that parents ask to have for their child. I have seen what I liked and disliked in teachers over the years and plan on not letting any of my students down by making sure each receives a good quality education. I am ready to take on any challenges when it comes to teaching and look forward to obtaining my Masters Degree in Education and my Doctrine. I plan on being certified in teaching gifted and talented along with being a reading resource teacher. I feel that to keep up on all the latest teaching challenges that I to must continue my education toward being the best educator I can be.

D- Diversity

This artifact represents my knowledge of diversity, it is a story book of a girl whom had recieved bad treatment for being of a different race. My curriculum will be based on teaching every child will recieve a education that will guarantee they will be treated fairly and that their differences will be celebrated. Children in my classroom will treat each other with respect and dignity, no matter what their exceptionalities are. Whether it is race or disabilities, every child will be taught not only how to do math and reasing but how to be a better human being.
