The picture of Hector, our reading buddy, really needs to be at the lead of our blog. We toss Hector around the room when we read orally in class. When he heard me talking about my adventure to the Mojave with Spaceward Bound, he said, "Yikes! With all of this talk of scorpions and snakes and bats and star-gazing and lava tubes, I MUST go with you to protect you!"
Hector really gave me no choice but to allow him to go with me. Besides, he may be able to scare away some of the beasties they told me about. He said it should be quite a hair-raising experience and he should know with his moptop!
Hector and I will keep you posted as to all that we're doing while we are "Spaceward Bound."
As a teacher of the gifted, I am able to work every day with students who have exceptional abilities.
I've been teaching gifted students for 20 years. Before that, I taught nursery school for 4 years and before that, I taught grades 1, 4, 5, and 6 for 5 years. I have two children - Christine, who is a 4th grade teacher in Tucker County, and Eddie, who is an engineer for NAVAIR living in Jacksonville, Florida. My husband, Ed, is retired from construction work. We've been married for 38 years.
