Melissa+Young

=Hi everyone! I am impressed at how this page has progressed so quickly and impressively! Trevor you have done a fabulous job getting the foundation created! = = = =My name is Melissa Young. I am currently in my fourth year of teaching and in my fourth year of teaching third grade. I teach at a small school in Maryland. I love teaching and I love my school. There are a lot of changes occuring in my county right now that I hope end up being good changes. We are already starting to embrace the Common Core State Standards. We are working on incorporating more cooperative learning in our daily instruction. I have learned more about different teaching strategies than I have in my previous three years. I am looking forward to see how I continue to grow as a teacher through my county changes and through the things I learn through Walden University. Technology is a passion of mine and I love to learn new ways to incorporate it into my classroom. = = = =My Personal Blog: Melissa's Thoughts = =My Classroom Wiki (Still in Progess) =
