Learn MoreMy most memorable teacher was my kindergarten teacher Mrs. Rygh and the moment I walked into her kindergarten classroom I told my parents I want to be a teacher when I grow up. There wasn't any other option in my mind.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceOh my gosh! There are so many. I teach in a title 1 school and there are so many times when I think wow, im going to remember this moment. To be honest I remember them all. :)
What would you do with the $25,000?Well the first thing I would do is order chapter books for my chapter book club literature studies. Then I think I'd go down the science path and try and create a way for a fun science lab set up where other teachers could come "rent a project" tub or something from me (I wouln't charge them lol)...spreading the science seed!"
