NEWBIE HERE





Here is what people are sharing:  
    1.  what state you are in
    2.  your current teaching position
    3.  your teaching experience
    4.  when you started blogging
    5.  share a blogging tip / blogging resource
 
 
 
 
 
I have been reading so many blogs out there and I am amazed at all the amazing rooms, activities, and awesomeness that I see out there. I am inspired to try new things in my class this year. So I saw this on a few blogs and decided to join in.
 
1. I teach in Southern California for a large urban district. My school is a Title 1 School with many English Language Learners-Armenian and Spanish. 

2 & 3. This is my 12th year. I have taught Kinder for about 3 years and 1st for 7 years. For the past 2 years I left the classroom to become the Intervention Coordinator. I really liked working with small groups of kids. With this position I was able to work more with the community and the parents, which I really enjoyed also. I am returning to 1st grade. I really miss having my own class and teaching Math, Science and Social Studies. I recently graduated with a Masters in Educational Administration. With that finished, I realized that I missed the classroom. I learned so much that I really do feel that I will be a better teacher. One day I may try something new, but for now I am going back to the classroom.

4. I started a family blog a few years ago, which took a back seat to school but with this new blog I hope to gain and share with other teachers.

5. While I'm just getting started, my resource would be the world of teacher bloggers out there. AWESOME! AWESOME!! AWESOME!!!

    Be sure and add a followers button. You can go to design at the top of your blog and then layout. Choose add a gadget and the follow button should be the ninth one. I would love for you to hop over and visit me when you get the chance. =)
