My name is Lynda and I write this cute little blog! I have taught for 15 years, most of which were in first grade. I now currently teach fourth grade and absolutely love it! They are so fun to be around at this age and are truly becoming independent learners. I'm a momma of a beautiful daughter and my furry baby of 13 years. I leave in a small town just west of Houston.
One of the things that I love most about my town is the small town feel that it has. I have been teaching at my school for 11 years and I have seen siblings pass through my classroom and families continue to grow. For many of my students, I have known them since they were little and have had the opportunity to watch them grow.
I am always looking for something fun and engaging that will allow me to teach the content that I have in a way that is exciting to the kids. Using technology in the classroom is essential. Most recently, I have started using KaHoot with my students and they love it! It's a fast paced and entertaining way to practice just about any skill that you can imagine! It's been such a success and I have written a little more about it on Blog Hoppin'.
Here are a few of the freebies that I have shared on my blog about Texas... just click here and here for the posts about our great state of Texas!
