Space Shuttle Launch
It was an exciting day watching the space shuttle launch and emailing a 3rd grader (my nephew!) who was there. He described it as very bright and it sounded like fire works. Go to www.nasa.gov to check out more pictures and videos.
This will be my 14th year of teaching at Ivy Hill Elementary School in Arlington Heights, IL. I taught 9 years in grades 4 and 5 and am currently the LMC Director. I went to Glenbrook North High School in Northbrook, Illinois, Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas and National-Louis University in Evanston, Illinois. I have a Masters in Education and have completed an English as a Second Language and Library Media endorsement. I am married, have 3 children, and live in Northbrook, Illinois.
