Okay so it’s not Tuesday, but with school in full swing, I thought I would give my readers an extra chance to ask me some questions.
How are things going? Whether you are a parent of a preschooler or a Jr. Higher or any grade in between, I can help you find answers to questions you may have. One thing I haven’t done, is give you a little background about me!
Here is a little bio for you just in case you need to know my credentials. I graduated with a B.S. in Elementary Education with a concentration in Math. I love Math and I love teaching math. I taught 5th grade math and science for 7 years. I am currently half way through my Masters Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies of Elementary Education and Math. And although I LOVED teaching, I LOVE my own kids more and VERY fortunately I was able to become a stay-at-home mom after I had my second son, Carter. I worked full time the first year of being a mom, to help my husband’s business get off the ground. Although it has been a struggle sometimes to make ends meet, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I have been blessed and challenged in so many ways being at home with my boys.
I have found, that although I may not be physically in the classroom now, that I still desire to help others and find the BEST possible ways to help my own children learn. And as much as I love being home with my boys, I do miss teaching and helping others learn. That is the reason for “Ask the Teacher Tuesdays”. My goal is to help parents out with questions you may have that you may not know who to ask, or may not feel comfortable asking your child’s teacher.
It also allows me to stay current with today’s educational topics. Because trust me, if there is a question asked that I truly am not comfortable answering, I research all the latest info until I feel comfortable to help, and/or ask colleagues of mine who I trust! So keep me busy!!
I look forward to this endeavor and even if you don’t have specific questions, stop by on Tuesdays and see what topics I am discussing and questions parents are asking. You never know what you might come across and hopefully find something that will help your job as “parent” a little bit easier!
So keep in touch and if you are new to my site, WELCOME. I look forward to getting to know you.
If you have questions or concerns, not related to this post that you would like to bounce off me, you can leave a comment here or contact me.

Cool idea! I’ll be sure to pass it on to those I know with kids.
What do you think about 3 year-olds going to a pre-school program? I’m considering it for next fall – 9am – noon two days a week. B is an only child thus far. She spends little time with kids her own age as her local cousins are much older and playdates just aren’t as frequent as I’d like them to be.
