SpellOutloud on Squidoo

Lvl 53 Contact

I am a former elementary school teacher and I currently have a classroom of 6 at home. I enjoy digital scrapbooking and photography,and many of the photos on my lenses were taken by me. I'm a teacher at heart and love to share what I've learned with others. When I have some extra time, I like to read historical fiction books or scrapbook with my friends.

Hey, fellow We Teach member! You have some great lenses here. I'm going to look yours over more for format ideas. I'm sure I'll like a few too. No time right now, but I'll be back. I'm a fan of yours now too.
Thanks for the positive comments about Squidoo on the discussion at We Teach. I didn't know how to respond since I'm pretty new at Squidoo.
