Hello blogging world...here I am!

Well, I am new to blogging but very excited to get started!  I have been married for 20 years this month.  I have four wonderful children between the ages of 15 and 22.  I currently teach K-5/K-4 at a Christian school. 

I must say I love teaching!   I began teaching about 15 years ago.  I taught K-4 and K-5 for a total of four years before homeschooling my four children up until two years ago.  I also love homeschooling!  During our homeschooling years I worked on my bachelor's degree in elementary education (Interdisciplinary Studies - to be exact!).  I received my teaching certificate from the state of Michigan in January of 2012.  I began teaching 5th grade last year and moved to K-5/K-4 this year. 

My adventures in education ~which education should be an adventure~ has been great.  I learned so much through homeschooling and the use of different curriculums and the many, many workshops I attended.  I also learned so much through conversations with other homeschool moms, many of whom were certified teachers.  We talked of curriculum, learning styles, instructional methods, learning disabilities, differentiated instruction, dinner, husbands, etc....  

I have also started selling products on teacherspayteachers.com.  Please check out my products! http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Lighting-Fires-Through-Learning
