I have worked with children for over 10 years.  I have always enjoyed the way children can make me laugh and how they are always eager to learn new things.  I enjoy reading, especially science fiction and fantasy.  I also love to watch movies in my free time.  Another interest I have is animals.  There are currently 2 pets in our classroom, a snake (Kaa) and a guinea pig (Gizmo).  I have many other pets at home, too.  Teddi Barra is my para-educator’s therapy dog that also visits the room often.  A few other things that I enjoy are music, hiking, cooking, and traveling.
