I can see that curiosity got the best of you :) My name is Shelley Young and I have been teaching in the Dunlap School District for nine years now. I taught third grade at Banner Elementary for five years before becoming a fifth grade teacher. This is my fifth year of teaching 5th grade.
Before teaching at Banner I was a substitute teacher in the Quad Cities, which is where I am originally from. I grew up in Rock Island, IL where I attended school k-12. I attended Illinois State University where I earned my bachelor's degree in elementary education and master's degree in reading.
Reading is a passion of mine and I hope that some day each life I touch has the ability to find the same passion. Some of my favorite books are from Judy Schachner (Skippyjon Jones) and Susanne Collins (Hunger Games). I also enjoy cooking/food magazines (Everyday with Rachel Ray or Food Network Magazine).
In my free time I enjoy reading and cooking, as well as shopping and exercising. I also enjoy taking trips with my husband and going to concerts. This summer my husband and I spent 5 days in Milwaukee at Summer Fest enjoying all the music we could handle! We also enjoy attending a St. Louis Cardinal's game each summer.
