Introduction

Well to be honest I am unsure what I am doing right now and if it is correct or not because I have never blogged before and I am slightly nervous about it.
My name is Jennifer Rozean and I am 31 years old and I live in Clay Center, Kansas. I am happily married to my husband Jason and we have 3 kids Abigail, Ethan and Nicolas. We are always involved in some sort of sports and they get that from their father because I am more the music and art lover!!
I am going into education because my mom was a special education teacher and I observed and assisted in her class for a few years and I really enjoyed the ability to be with students of different learning abilities. I also worked as a para in the 4th and 5th grade classes for 2 years and enjoyed it. Two of my children have had IEPs and one is still on a speech IEP. I know what it is like to be the parent of a child with delays and I want to be the teacher that can sympathize and understand how children are not all the same and that they need a learning environment for that adapts to them, not them to the environment.
I am wanting to teach the 4th or 5th grade right now, but whatever is open when I am done is fine with me.
In my spare time(whats that??) I like to read, sing and draw. Right now we are remodeling the house which is going slowly, but surely.
Good luck to everyone this semester!!
