=What is a Wiki?= A Wiki is a wonderful tool. It is similar to a website. It can provide indepth information on certain topics. It can have interactive links, photos, and videos. Some Wikis also allow 'members' to post comments.

My Wiki will entertain you with pictures of your children in action and events such as Walk To School, All School Walk, and M.I.L.E. Club. It will provide information on various systems in the body. It will include videos that better explain how things such as the muscles and bones work. It will provide links to further learning.

I am thrilled that you are viewing and navigating through my Wiki!

=About Me!= I'd like to tell you a little bit about myself. I have been teaching for 30 years and have enjoyed every day! Children are my passion! In addition to teaching physical education I have many interests and hobbies. I am a voracious reader. When I can't sit down with a book I am listening to books on tape! I love to garden. My gardens are filled with perrenials and annuals. I have a water garden and many garden containers. My husband and I have 2 dogs. I compete with them in 'Agility' which is an event in which dogs go through tunnels, over jumps, across a teeter-totter and more! I am very fortunate to have such a rich and rewarding life!

=﻿My Philosophy!= My philosophy is to create a very warm, welcoming, and safe environment for all of my students. I view each of my classes as an extended family where each member supports and respects each other. I believe in recognizing and affirming each child's unique gifts and needs.

=Physical Education Goals!= As only 7% of adults over the age of 21 engage in organized sports my focus in physical education is educating my students to the importance of working toward and maintaining a healthy body. I help them achieve this by teaching them to develop a life-long commitment to good health through exercise and proper nutrition.
