"I am a middle school teacher in Atlanta, Georgia, and I love it! I started my teaching career in Athens, Georgia, while I was a student at the University of Georgia. After I graduated from UGA, I began teaching 6th grade social studies in the Atlanta area. Now in my third year, I am currently teaching 7th grade. I love making social studies interactive an engaging for the students. My goal is to create lessons that not only help them to learn the topic but also to build on literacy and make connections to the world."
