toc Teach To Learn
 * == Section 1: Introduction ==
 * My name is Stephanie Marshall and this will be my first year at St. Nicholas School in Chattanooga, TN as a Language Arts/Social Studies teacher for first graders (Level 3s). I have been teaching for 18 years in various levels from preschool through 3rd grade. I have a BS in Human Ecology: Child and Family Studies (Teaching PreK-3) and a Masters in Education Administration and Supervision. I am a mother of a 14 year old son (starting high school this year...YIKES) and a 5 month old son.....I know...WHAT WAS SHE THINKING? :) My husband and I have been married for four years. I love my job because there is nothing that compares to hearing a child read a book on their own for the first time!
 * == Section 2: Favorite Things ==
 * Listening to my 5 month old laugh
 * The smell of fresh baked bread/cookies
 * Watching my 14 year old play basketball
 * Coming home to a clean house (I love my wonderful husband :) )
 * Fresh sheets from the dryer
 * CHOCOLATE!...need I say more?
 * Hanging out with my best friends
 * == Section 3: Burning Questions ==
 * //Why do we call the place we park our cars a driveway and the place we drive our cars a parkway?//
 * //Why does a reading teacher (aka ME) have to BEG and BRIBE my son to read?//
