Activities that I enjoy
===When I'm not busy with school work I enjoy engaging in a variety of activities. One of my favorite activities is running. In 2006, I had the privilege and honor of both running and completing the New York marathon. I hope to encourage my students to physically fit, as I believe that its important to be healthy in both body and mind.===

===I also enjoy reading. My mother is a teacher for the academically gifted and through her guidance I've had the opportunity and the privilege of reading a great number of books. Some of my favorite are the following: __Rebbecca__, __The Great Gatsby__, __To Kill a Mockingbird__, __Pride and Prejudice__, and __Phantom of the Opera__. My job as a teacher is to encourage students to read, so they might also be able to gain insight and knowledge of their own.===

===My favorite thing to do is to travel. Over the short span of my life I've had the great opportunity to travel to a great number of places. I hope to share my knowledge of these travels in the classroom, as well as initiate field trips. Because I believe that the best lessons are taught outside the classroom.===
