Welcome!

Wow! So in the vast internet-verse, you managed to stumble across my blog!  Hopefully here you'll find some interesting tidbits.

I'm currently a Grade 7 teacher but I've taught Grade 6, Grade 4 and substituted in every grade in between.  Being a temporary staff member means I'm not guaranteed a job every September to I get shuffled around quite a bit and while it makes it hard to find my niche, it gives me lots of experience in a whole bunch of different classrooms and grade. I'm hoping this will be a great platform for me to reflect on my classroom experiences, share some of what I'm learning and hopefully learn a thing or two from you, too!

Why iTeach, iLearn, iPlay? I chose this name for my blog because those three things, teaching, learning, and playing, are quintessential in just about every part of life but especially so in the classroom.  I believe that I am not only there to be a teacher but I am also there to learn.  Children are not only there to learn, they are there to be teachers to each other and to us and to learn and teach through play.

Stay tuned for what I hope will be some great posts!
