I am a 5th
grade science and social studies teacher at Arab Elementary
School in Arab, AL. This
is my fourth year teaching 5th grade, and my third year at Arab
Elementary. I taught 5th grade at Ridgecrest
Elementary in Huntsville, AL and 4th grade for two years at Creekside Elementary in Harvest, AL
before coming to Arab Elementary school. I have also taught leaves in 2nd,
3rd,
5th,
and 6th
grades. I have loved them all.
I am originally from Athens, AL. I married
Jeremy Smalley on June 1, 2013. He is the youth pastor at Arab
First Baptist and the reason I moved to Arab. I graduated from
Athens High School in 2004, Troy University with a B.S. in
Elementary Education in 2007, the University of West Alabama
with a M.Ed in Elementary Education in 2012, and the University
of West Alabama with an Ed.S in Elementary Education in May
2013. Other than teaching, I enjoy coloring, crayons, painting, children’s books,
technology, decorating, movies, old TV shows, and new TV shows.
I am very excited about what the 2015-2016 school year will
bring!
About the Website:
I
designed the structure for this website before I ever even
started teaching. When I got my first teaching job, though, I was
provided with a wonderful website from SCHOOLinSITES. When I was
faced with the possibility of being hired by another school
system, I decided to be proactive. I moved as much of my website
stuff to this structure I made so many years ago. I wanted all
of the wonderful websites and resources I had found and made to
be available to my students. I want this to be a place for teachers, parents, and
students to find quality websites and resources easily. Right
now, this website is PACKED with on-line games and activities in
every subject.
A lot of the links and projects
on this website are still targeted toward 4th
grade because that is the age group and curriculum I taught the
longest. There are also 4th
grade Scott Foresman resources by story including spelling games
for every story and a few games/websites for skills. You will
also find websites and games that complement 4th
grade Alabama history and a few Alabama history
projects and activities that we did in my classroom.
The bulk of the games and websites on this site are online math
games and interactive activities and online science games and
interactive activities. There are even interactive typing,
interactive copyright, interactive web safety, and interactive
netiquette websites. ALL of the games listed on this website are
actually fun and engaging and come from wonderfully
non-cluttered, easy to use webpages. I have not posted
anything that I do
not enjoy thoroughly myself.
Thank you so much for exploring this website. I hope you enjoy it!
