Passion

If you were to talk to my grade school teachers they would all say the same thing; I never paid attention, I was rowdy, and a huge procrastinator.  It wasn't until college did I realize I had a bad case of ADD.   I know, I know!  ADD and ADHD seems to be prescribed to every kid now a days.  For me, receiving help changed my life.  One semester of classes I was failing, I got help, the next semester I was on the A - B honor role.  I am now half way through my masters at Michigan State University with a 4.0 GPA.  I taught for four years as third grade teacher in a private school and am now a youth programs educator at Lansing Community College.  

Who am I to provide educational advise?  I'm a nobody, a mother, an elementary teacher, an average Joe - that's why!  I am a regular person with a little experience in education who, like the rest of you, trying to be the best parent/teacher I can be.  

What is Delaneycation?

Delaneycation has been a dream of mine for over a decade.  As a teacher, I love sharing what I know and have learned from others.  As a parent, I am constantly searching for ways to build an educational environment in my home.   Kids?  Well I couldn't leave them out so I created an educational gaming section organized by subject area.
