Introduction

I have created my first blog using Blogger. 
My name is Ashley Keith, I am a brand new college student, again.  When I graduated from high school, 10 years ago I attended Alderson-Broaddus College to pursue a degree in the health care field.  Now after almost 10 years of working on ambulances and in the emergency room the long hours have finally gotten to me.  Spring of this year I decided it was time for a change and to do that I needed to go back to school.  Spending time with my step-daughter who is in the 3rd grade, helping her with homework, I realized what I wanted to do.  Watching her from day to day learning new information and seeing the smile on her face as she is and increasing her knowledge made me realize that I would like to be more of a part of this experience in other children's lives.  That is the main reason I have chosen to pursue a degree in Elementary Education.

Blogging is completely new to me, I am not intimidated by it because I use technology every day in my personal and professional life.  I look forward to learning about this and other tools that will assist me in being a great teacher.
