Hi everyone. My name is Kristen DeRue and I am in the Computers in the Classroom class on Thursday nights. I grew up in Rochester. I have one older brother who got married a year ago and lives in Ithaca. He is a chef at a local restaurant and my sister-in-law is attending Cornell to become a vetenarian. I attended John Carroll University in Cleveland, Ohio. I received a BA in Early Childhood Education. On my free time I was a gymnastics instructor for Elite Gymnastics. I have coached gymnastics for 6 years. I was also trained as an ABA therapist at the Cleveland Clinic and tutored an Autistic child for two years. Once I graduated I moved back to Rochester and was a substitute teacher in the Gates Chili Central School District. I was a long-term substitute for first and third grade last year. I was hired full time this summer and I am currently teaching kindergarten at Neil Armstrong Elementary School. I am looking forward to learning more about children and enjoying my first year of teaching. ------------------------------------------------------------ Class website: http://www.greece.k12.ny.us/taylor/suny/ ------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this listserv, go to: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=edi581 If you have any problems, send an e-mail to: JerryTaylr@xxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------------
