Field Trip

Next class period we will be taking a trip to Missouri State University. We will be going to the library to learn about their scholarly sources that we can use for our research paper. The students will be missing all day. They do not need to bring lunch because we will be eating for free at blair-shannon. They will get to see a little more about college life.

Welcome to my blog! I would just like to introduce myself. I am your students 10th grade English honors teacher. I went to Missouri State to earn my teaching degree. I graduated from there in 2011. I am currently still in school at MSU to get my masters in counseling.
