I teach tenth grade Language Arts in Seattle.  I've taught 7-10th grades, history and LA, honors and standard.  I've taught in the city, where I live, and in the suburbs.  Change is important to me - every few years I get the itch to teach something new or teach a different age or demographic of student. 

I'm also a mom, and a gardener - two roles that inform the decisions I make in the classroom.
