About Me

My name is Misty and this is my second year at Boise State. I have always been interested in teaching but put my education on hold so I could be home with my children until they were all in school full time. I want to teach in the Elementary school and really like the 3rd grade. I also really enjoy math so I may get an endorsement so I have more opportunity to change. If I do have a 3rd grade classroom I would like to use activities on the computer to make learning more interesting for my students. I could go on YouTube and let them watch videos on space shuttle expeditions, have them read interactive books on the computer or help them prepare for state test with different websites like prepdog.com.

  1. Misty, you and I have a lot in common. I put my education on hold as well to raise two children. I started my education for my teaching degree over 20 years ago and have been trying to chip away at it a little at a time. Now that the my kids are getting older I feel that its time for me to complete what I started so long ago. Funny thing when I started out technology was just starting to become a part of college education but not elemenatry or secondary education yet. It is so exciting to see the opportunities that students have now that we did not. I enjoyed reading your post.
