I am so excited to start this blog and share my teaching experiences with you! I am new to the blogging world but hope to provide interesting and helpful information. Before I begin sharing posts about the classroom, I feel I should give you a little bit of information about ME!
My name is Meghan and I am a special education teacher to Pre-K/K students. Although I love my current age group, I did not start out working with this level. My first job was working for the Elderly/Disabled population in their homes using my Social Work degree. I learned very quickly that I wanted to be with a younger group. I then changed to the 21 and younger population within the same field of work. From there, I decided to go back to school and become certified to teach in special education. I received my Alt. Cert. in K-12 Special Ed and started teaching at a Jr. High self contained classroom. I absolutely loved this setting but after 3 years, I realized I wanted to work with a different group. Not just because of the age but also because of the size of the students. See, I am a pretty petite gal and some of these students over-powered me and I didn't like feeling a loss of control. That is when the offer came to work in a much younger, much smaller setting...preschool! I was absolutely
I am married (8 years!) and also a mother to two young, energetic kiddos. One is 6 and the other is 4. I hope to introduce them at a later date and time.
So what do you say...Let's get this thing started!
