Meet the Teacher...Me!

Miss Falling Into First had a great idea for a Linky Party! I am linking up with it...it is Meet The Teacher! This way everyone gets a chance to meet their favorite Blogging Buddies. 


Hello! My name is Alison or Ali and I just turned 30! Not sure what I think about it still but it is life! I have been teaching for 9 years! I taught 1st grade for 5 years, taught 3rd grade for 1 year, and I was a Reading Interventionist for 2 years. This year I am going back into the classroom! That is where my heart is! 

I am not married...but have had a boyfriend for a couple of years now, who is amazing! 

A couple of things I really enjoy are running, kickball and crafting. I have been a runner since middle school. I run half marathons now and truly love them. Crazy I know..right! Kickball...yes, I am on a very competitive  kickball team! We travel all over the country to compete! 





THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS...

Running Shoes (I buy them like crazy!), Rose, Rose bushes, tomatoes, CUPCAKES (Duh!) Clipart..I have become obsessed with it! My family, wiener dogs, Alex and Ani Bracelets .

 IF YOU WEREN'T A TEACHER, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO BE?

Hmmmm...that is actually a good question! I have always wanted to be a teacher. I would guess I would want to be something that still lets me create things. My sister designs light fixtures....creativity runs in the family. 

THREE LITTLE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE YOU.
Creative, Patient, Kind

FINISH THE SENTENCE, "________,  SAID NO TEACHER EVER!!"
I LOVE analyzing DATA , said NO teacher ever!


 IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY AND YOU CAN INVITE ANYONE {DEAD OR ALIVE} TO THE PARTY. WHO ARE YOU INVITING?
hmmmm...My Grandparents, I miss them. and my Boyfriend's parents...I never had the chance to meet them and they did such an amazing job raising their son. 

IF SOMEONE WROTE A BOOK ABOUT YOUR LIFE, WHAT WOULD BE THE TITLE?
Cupcake Paradise 

YOU GET TO PICK ONE SUPERPOWER. WHAT IS IT?
Reading Minds. I always wish I knew what people were thinking. 

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE OR SAYING?
Start Each Day with a Greatful Heart

IF YOU HAD TO SING ONE SONG ON AMERICAN IDOL, WHAT WOULD IT BE? 
American Pie...I have no idea but that is what popped into my head OR Ironic ...Isn't it Ironic...Don't you think..


 ARE YOU A MORNING PERSON OR A NIGHT OWL?
Honestly I am a little of both. I would rather stay up late and get things done, but I work well in the morning too. 

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE RESOURCE THAT YOU'VE CREATED IN YOUR TPT SHOP?
Probably my Build a Sentence/Sentence Sorts. I have a Halloween set too and will be creating them for the rest of the holidays and seasons. It is a great center for my students to work on in writing. Students have to sort words into the correct order to make a sentence that makes sense. 



SHARE SOMETHING WE MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU! 
I am actually very shy. When I am around people I don't know I am very quiet. Well let me rephrase that...I am shy around grown ups my age. But put me in a room with little kids and I won't shut up. Or put me in a room with parents and I don't shut up! 


Head on over to Falling Into First and link up!

  4. I already knew so much about you through LIFT Packages, but I got to learn even more! I love your finish the sentence part. You never know, a math teacher (not saying me) might like to analyze data... I also think that book title would be perfect for you!
