Hello, my name is Chasity Ledkins and I live in a very small town called Excel, Alabama. I have been married for ten years and have three children, Carter (8), Cade (6) and Addie (2). They keep me very busy! I have an Accounting degree, but after working as an Accountant for years I knew it was not my dream and so I went into teaching. This is my third year of teaching Algebra at Monroe County High School and I love it! I was an ABC student and took my four classes and passed the praxis in Math so now I am highly qualified. This is my first term in Graduate school and I am so excited to be going back. I chose Library Media for my master's so that if I ever decide to come out of the classroom, I have somewhere to go. Teaching and helping children is my life long dream and it is the most rewarding job ever. I teach at a low income school, so for some, I am not only a teacher, but a mother in simple terms.
As far as technology, I have a good bit in my classroom and hope to be receiving more in the next few months. I have a symposium which has to be my favorite. As I am facing the classroom, I write on it and it projects through an LCD projector onto a screen behind me. This enables me to watch the class and make sure they are following along while I am teaching.
I am so looking forward to this session and learning a lot of new things for my classroom.
I enjoyed learning more about you Chasity! Three kids, teaching and classes must keep you on your toes! :) I hope you enjoy this class and grad school! I have really enjoyed it! Looking forward to working with you in this class. :)
