My First Blog Hop {such a newbie!}

This is my very first experience with a linky party. I've been wanting to do one ever since I started the blog but I just couldn't find the right one as my very first one. {just in case I messed up you know}. Then I ran across this one and its designed for newbies, like me. So if I somehow mess up we can all blame it on the fact that I am a bloggy baby! Janis over at Grade Three is the Place for Me had the idea. Yay! Here I go.

1.What state are you in?

I teach in the mountains of North Carolina in a town very close to Asheville. Have you heard of it?

2. Your current teaching position.

I teach first grade. Love. It.

3. Your teaching experience.

I have taught for 6 years. My first year was in 2nd, the next three years I taught 3rd {love third graders!}, and the past two years I have been in first.

4.When you started blogging.

I started this blog in June of this year {2012}. I bet you can tell because I only have a few posts. I'm trying hard to keep each post meaningful, useful, and creative!

5. Share a blogging tip.

Before I became a blogger and not just a blogging stalker I always looked at and bookmarked teaching blogs who gave out lots of freebies and saved the really good stuff {the stuff that took hours to think of , compile, and complete} for tpt. I respect the bloggers who are so willing to share as much as sell in their stores.

Here's a picture of me with my little handsome. He just turned 1 not long ago and he is the center of my universe!

I can't wait to meet all of you. Thanks to everyone for making me a better teacher!
