I am a first grade teacher at an elementary school in Greenville, South Carolina. I teach at a high poverty school, but you would never know it walking through the doors! I teach the cutest first graders you have ever seen :) We are currently on day 4 of indoor recess... which to a 6 year old is complete torture. To spice things up a bit we've been watching the Olympics. Today I had a brilliant stroke of genius- we could re-enact the Olympics right here in our classroom!

One of the ones my kids get mesmerized with is alpine skiing. So one brave boy was ready to take on the challenge of representing team USA in skiing in our class. Thanks to some awesome invisible skiis and some very sturdy regulation poles, he won first place in record time! :)
