Meet the Teacher Linky


 

Well, now that my blogging is in full swing, I figured I should probably share who I am with many of you that have not met me.

My name is Keisha McHargue and I have taught middle school for 5 years. I have taught in several districts in the Nebraska, Iowa, and Kansas area. I am currently working on my Ed.D through Liberty University in Curriculum and Instruction.  I am also a 5th grade intern for Whole Brain Teaching this year.  My goal would be to present throughout the country on Whole Brain Teaching strategies.

Anyway, this year I am starting at a new district in Iowa and am excited to get my students engaged in learning science!


THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS...
Favorite things include Hershey's chocolate bars and Sharpie colored flair pens. I absolutely love Eileen's sugar cookies (I know the company isn't everywhere, but if you come to Nebraska you have to get them!).

IF YOU WEREN'T A TEACHER, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO BE?
If I wasn't a teacher, I would want to be a pharmacist.  Don't ask me why, but I always contemplated it.  I guess it ties into my love for science, but I definitely wouldn't be as good of pharmacist as I am teacher, so I'm definitely where I am supposed to be!

THREE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE YOU...
Ambitious, Upbeat, Compassionate

FINISH THE SENTENCE, "________________, SAID NO TEACHER EVER!!"
"You are right, teaching is so easy."

IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY AND YOU CAN INVITE ANYONE {DEAD OR ALIVE} TO THE PARTY WHO ARE YOU INVITING?
Hmm, I don't really become fascinated with famous people.  I'd probably just invite my current friend and family.  I know that is a lame answer.

IF SOMEONE WROTE A BOOK ABOUT YOU, WHAT WOULD BE THE TITLE?
A Beacon of Light and a Hope for the Future

YOU GET TO PICK ONE SUPERPOWER, WHAT IS IT?
The ability to heal people

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE OR SAYING?
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." - Nelson Mandela

IF YOU HAD TO SING ONE SONG ON AMERICAN IDOL, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
"If I Die Young" The Band Perry

ARE YOU A MORNING PERSON OR A NIGHT OWL?
Neither.  I do best mid-morning, once I've had a chance to get up and get going.

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE RESOURCE YOU HAVE CREATED ON TPT?
Parent letter to notify parents of videotaping for WBT certification

SHARE SOMETHING WE MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU.
Even though I push myself into leadership opportunities, I am terrified of public speaking.
