Meet the Teacher Blogger {Linky}


Hey y'all!  My name is Anna, and I'm just getting my blog started.  This is such a fun way to connect with other teacher-bloggers!  Thank you Falling Into First for this fabulous idea!


I'm a 32 year old teacher, aunt, daughter, and single lady! This is my ninth year teaching, with eight of those years teaching Mathematics.  I love my work with students, and truly feel blessed to teach math.  Major props to all the Reading teachers out there!  I don't see how y'all do it!  


My boys are my babies!  Clearly...you can tell that they are my fur babies.  But aren't they just adorable?  They are the biggest, laziest, cuddliest dogs and perfect to come home to after work!

This summer I have really tried to focus on relaxing and rejuvenating before this next school year starts.  So I have spent alot of time in the pool and hanging out with my best friend, Lindsey. 





I also read around 50 books this summer.  (I'm a HUGE reader.)  And, for any of you who love to read, I read all five Game of Thrones books this summer, and they were amazing! 



THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS...

The lotion you can use in the shower.  The one from Olay.  I really hate the feel of lotion on my skin, and that stuff has to be the best invention ever!  I buy 4-5 bottles of it whenever they have it in stock at our store, because apparently it is a seasonal item.
My family. Church. Friends. Books. TV - especially Sons of Anarchy and all the Real Housewives shows. Madres - a local restaurant that I visit quite frequently. Harry Potter movies and books. Fall. Football Season - Gig 'Em Aggies!


 IF YOU WEREN'T A TEACHER, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO BE?
I always wanted to be a teacher.  It's in my DNA.  I used to have classes in my garage with my neighborhood friends, using my mom's TEs!  But, if I had to pick something else, it would have to be a Crime Scene Investigator.  It's so fascinating how they help to solve crimes!


THREE LITTLE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE YOU.
Loyal. Honest. Trustworthy. 

 
FINISH THE SENTENCE, "________,  SAID NO TEACHER EVER!!"

"I don't need to restock my classroom pencil supply...said no teacher EVER!!"
 

Q: IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY AND YOU CAN INVITE ANYONE {DEAD OR ALIVE} TO THE PARTY. WHO ARE YOU INVITING?

Great musicians from the past - Lynyrd Skynyrd, Led Zeppelin, Boston.
AND
Paul Walker, Channing Tatum, Ian Kinsler.....all kinds of eye candy!  Remember...I am single! :)

Q: IF SOMEONE WROTE A BOOK ABOUT YOUR LIFE, WHAT WOULD BE THE TITLE?

 Zesty and Zealous 


 Q:YOU GET TO PICK ONE SUPERPOWER. WHAT IS IT?
 
 Definitely teleportation.  Only because I hate driving to get places.  I want to be there NOW! Haha!

Q: WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE OR SAYING?

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 
 

Q: IF YOU HAD TO SING ONE SONG ON AMERICAN IDOL, WHAT WOULD IT BE? 

 "Carry on My Wayward Son" by Kansas

 
 Q: ARE YOU A MORNING PERSON OR A NIGHT OWL?

I'm definitely a Night Owl.  My productivity is soooooo much better at night.  Staying up until 3am is normal for me (during the summer.) Mornings are just so hard....and I must have caffeine in order to do anything before 10am.  

 
Q: WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE RESOURCE THAT YOU'VE CREATED IN YOUR TPT SHOP?

 I really love my Measurement Memory/Matching game because it has both customary and metric system conversions.  My students really enjoyed it and didn't even complain about working out the conversions...so it has to be a win!  
 

Q: SHARE SOMETHING WE MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU! 

I'm nervous about blogging.  My sister is super good at it, but it's taken me over an hour just to do this!  (Eek!) But I am excited to get into it, and hope that I get more comfortable as I get going!


Now it's your turn to go on over and meet other teacher-bloggers!  Join the fun!
