I have been working at Hammarskjold Middle School for 8 years. I taught 6th grade Language Arts here for 6 years, and will be teaching 7th grade for the second time this year. I graduated from Rowan University and I also have a Masters in Reading and a certificate in Reading Specialty from Rutgers University.
More About Me:I love to read and write. I especially love Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight Saga and favor the book over the movie. The Hunger Games series became my all time favorite. I can read the series over and over again. I cannot wait for the movie to come out. I can only hope that it lives up to my expectations, I read anywhere from 10-20 books over the summer. I even read in the movie theater, which really makes my husband angry.
I love to watch reality TV and the food network. I also love to eat chocolate and drink Dunkin’ Donuts decaf French vanilla coffee. I love to listen to music especially oldies. Don’t be surprised if you walk into my classroom and you hear the Temptations or the Supremes playing on my iPod.
I got married in July of 2009 and changed my last name... I was previously known as "Ms. Rini"! I have known my husband since I was 15 years old and he is my best friend. Together, we are die-hard New York Giants fans and he is slowly converting me into becoming a Mets fan.
