I've been working with kids since I was a teenager. In middle and high school, I used to help out at my mom's school. She's a special ed para and I loved working with her students. That's what sparked my interesting in education and now I'm currently in my 7th year of teaching 2nd grade.
I have one (class) pet and his name is Coco. He's a Bearded Dragon and in my opinion, the coolest pet ever!
I was born and raised in CO. I grew up in Broomfield and went to college in Gunnison at Western State. I've traveled quite a bit throughout Europe (England, Spain, France, Italy, Croatia, and Greece), a little in South America (Ecuador--the Galapagos, and Peru) and I've been to Mexico a few times. I really enjoy traveling.
I have a lot of favorite books, but I'd have to go with Water for Elephants. My favorite children's book is Wayside School is Falling Down by Louis Sachar.
