Very nice job. I count five out of nine group members, as indicated in the wiki "History" who participated in the construction of this wiki.

This site was constructed by the following members:

Besides being a teacher, I am married to one as well. My husband teaches Computer Science in Middle School. He has been helping me out with some of our assignments if i get stuck. We both love what we do and love being able to help teach the students here in Maryland.

I teach junior high P.E. and Health. I live in Cheyenne, Wyoming. This is my second year teaching as I just graduated from the University of Wyoming in May of 2008. We have decent technology throughout our school. Smart boards are in almost every classroom. We have limited access to computers though because they are so old and outdated it takes more time to get them up and running for the students, then it does to teach a whole different lesson. I am also a high school football coach, and high school girls basketball coach.

I currently teach 9th grade Algebra at Saginaw High School in Saginaw, Michigan. It is a challenging role, but a rewarding one as well. I am really excited about this year because I am working with a great 9th grade team. We have so many ideas for how to get these kids motivated and on the right track, I hope they pay off. We currently do not have any type of positive reinforcement at a school or district level, so as a team we've been creating our own rewards for those students who are "doing the right thing". I also coach competitive cheerleading at Merrill High School in Merrill, Michigan, which is where I graduated from. I've also only been married for one year and we have a four month old chocolate lab. In addition to working on my masters, I have a lot on my plate, but I enjoy keeping busy (most of the time).

I have the pleasure of teaching middle school Health and P.E in Dacula Georgia (suburb of Atlanta). One thing is for certain, there is never a dull day and each day offers a unique challenge but I do love it because it keeps me on my toes. I am fortunate to work for Gwinnett County Schools where the primary focus is on the students. We have seen some budget cuts and even fulough days for teachers and staff fot the financial shortage has not hit the classroom. We have great facilities and state of the art equipment and I am very blessed to have the support and resources available to me.
