Hello!
I believe this is where I am supposed to introduce myself. If not, I guess I will feel like a goof ball!
However, my name is Emily Crow. I was born and raised in Glen Dale, WV, and I am 24 years old. I attended Fairmont State University for my undergrad, and I graduated December 12, 2012 with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education with a specialization in Mathematics grades 5-9. I immediately began my journey to complete my Master's Degree in Digital Media - New Literacies and Learning the next spring. During my first semester, I began substituting for Marion County. As I was searching for jobs, I found that the perfect job for me was available in my home town of Marshall County at the same middle school in which I attended. It was a sixth grade/middle school mathematics position; therefore, in February I applied. While waiting on a phone call for the job, I attended a National Professional Development Schools Conference in New Orleans to represent Fairmont State University. It was the most excitement I have had in my career! When I returned from this conference, I received the phone call that I had an interview. The day after my interview, I was told I had the job. Therefore, I moved from Fairmont back home to Glen Dale.
This is now my second year at Sherrard Middle School. I teach seventh grade math, as well as, co-teach in a sixth grade math class. I just recently bought a house all on my own, as well as a car! Also, I just received the head cheerleading coach position at my middle school. I am looking forward to finishing my Master's this coming May and continuing my profession at Sherrard Middle School.

Yes, this is where you post your introduction! Your professional life sounds very rewarding. I'm looking forward to collaborating and finding out more about your thoughts on leadership and technology.
Hello Emily!
I'm so excited to have another class with you! I love living vicariously through your 7th grade math adventures because I miss my 7th graders so much! I also enjoy giving you advice and help any way I can, makes me miss them less.
Congratulations on your new house, car, and cheer coach job! I was a cheerleader once upon a time, but I don't think they could pay me enough to coach it, lol.
I look forward to learning with/from you this semester!
Hello, Emily. It's so nice to see a familiar face (or name). I look forward to working with you again.
