Hi, my name is Brandy Delaney and I am a senior at EIU. I am an elementary education major and will be teaching in less than a year. When I am not in Charleston working on school assignments, you can find me in Manhattan, IL. visiting with friends and family. I also visit Springfield, IL. so I can see my adorable neice, Delaney. One my dreams is to see a mountian. I have never seen one and would love to one day. That is probably why I enjoy nature and outdoors so much! I also love to read. This is why I choose Hans Christian Andersen as a global hero. Hans Christian Andersen was a great man who contributed a lot to children's literature. Despite his hard times and poverty, he still managed to earn an education and follow his dreams. Most of all, I have enjoyed working on Project WOW with such a wonderful group of third graders. I learn from them just as much or even more than they do from me. I am amazed at their imagination and creativity and have had a wonderful experience. |
Hi, I'm Katie Fitzpatrick and I am a soon-to-be teacher! I am from Chicago and love traveling back there every so often to visit my family and friends, especially my neice, Molly and my nephew, Pete. I have close to 100 first cousins, most of which I live near, so it is always great to see them too! I enjoy reading children's books and hope to write one of my own someday. That is why I was so interested in learning more about Hans Christian Andersen. My favortie season is summer because I get to see my grandmother and uncle often in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. I love pizza; my family seems to eat it just about every Friday. I have an interest in theater and like to go and see a play every chance I can while I am in Chicago. You can always find me singing or listening to music because I love to sing! I enjoy hanging out with my friends as much as I can, but usually I am busy with school work. I am eager to begin my teaching career and am thankful to have been a part of Project WOW and to have met such great third graders! |
