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.

E-Effective Pedagogy

I created a Webquest on the Gyre in the South Pacific Ocean. This artifact provides evidence of effective pedagogy because it shows how I can use my knowledge and computer skills to produce webquests for my students to learn from. My webquest not only asks the students questions but also provides them with interesting photos and details of what is going on in that area of the ocean. The children will be interested in learning how they can stop it. Some topics that will be covered are ocean currents, recycling and the effect plastic has on the environment. This webquest provides all the information necessary to meet the Utah Core requirements for social studies while allowing the students to take on different parts of the project thus helping to meet the needs of each student individually. This web quest is fun for the kids while having them learn something at the same time.
