I live in Mendota, Illinois with my husband, Rusty, and our daughter, Perri.

My favorite hobbies are board games, (I have over 100!) scrapbooking, and golf.

My favorite subjects to teach are Science and Social Studies.

In 4th Grade, you can look forward to a lot of fun activities such as the There's a Boy in the Girls' Bathroom Novel unit, Pumpkin Math, Persuasive Commercials, My Great State Report, the Famous Person Creation, and the Simple Machines Valentine Box.

We'll also be taking a spring trip to the Museum of Science and Industry!
