Teaching tidbits...
College:
I attended Hibbing Community College for two years in Hibbing, Minnesota. I then went to St. Cloud State University for three years. I completed my Early Childhood Special Education Degree through summer school at Mankato State University. I have also attended Marshall State University off campus.
Degree:
I have a bachlor's degree in Special Education, Early Childhood Education, and Early Childhood Special Education. I have a master's degree in Leadership and Education.
Teaching Experience:
After student teaching in St. Cloud, Mn. and Brainerd, Mn. for a year and a half I was hired to teach Early Childhood Special Education here in Luverne, Mn. I have been teaching here in Luverne for the past 30 years.
Field Experiences:
Thirty years ago Early Childhood Special Education was a relatively new field. I taught self-contained Special Education Preschool 4 and 5 half days per week. Since then the Early Childhood Special Education Preschool has gone through several transformations to get to where it is today with the majority of 3-6 year olds attending regular education preschool classes with special education services embedded into the regular education routine.
