Time to link up with some fun linkies!

Flying Into First Grade

What made you become a teacher?

    I always played "school" with my sister and friends.  I always wanted to go to school and never missed a day unless I was really sick.  So I guess I would say it was in my nature.  My third grade teacher also had a huge impact on me wanting to be a teacher, I loved her class and her.

What has been your most rewarding experience as a teacher?

   Last year I had a student who was unmotivated, especially in reading, and had some anger/behavior issues.  With some tough love, encouragement, and an opportunity to throw a few pies in my face this student scored a 3 on his Reading Test and a 4 on his Math test.  The year before he scored a 1 and 3, our scores are from 1-4.  The look on his face when I told him his reading score was worth the struggles.  He won a chance to throw three pies in my face :)  You find the original post here.

If you were not a teacher, what would you be?

   I would be a stay-at-home mom.  I would also like to have my realtor's license.

I am linking up with Pinkadots Elementary's first linky party, School Supply List!  I love this topic because I am already thinking about next year, honestly this year cannot end fast enough!

My school supply list for 4th grade:

{We each have our own list, unlike other grades in my school where they all have the same}

I am looking forward to see what others put on their supply list, might inspire me to make some changes to mine :)
