Hey, my name is Brooke McCranie.  I am 20 years old and originally from Eastman, Georgia. I am a junior at Valdosta State University pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education.  I recently received my Associate's Degree from Middle Georgia College and transfered to Valdosta State. I decided I wanted to become a teacher because I absolutely love children and feel that being a teacher is one of the most self-fulfilling careers a person can have.  I hope to someday teach in the Dodge County School System or perhaps another small town in Middle Georgia.  I have always said that I would like to teach either Kindergarten or 1st grade. However, after my first day of Practicum I think I may even like to teach Pre-k.


        This is my first time away from home, however I am living in Blanton Common Apartments with my two best friends so it hasn't been that bad!  We have been friends since we were like 5 years old, so we know each other pretty well.  Although it has been really different in a new place away from home, I am excited about living here in Valdosta.  I'll have to say that I do really miss my daddy cutting the fool with me and my mama's good cooking though.  I have two older brothers, Brian and Brodie and I guess I miss them a little too.  I am also an aunt of 2 nieces and 3nephews whom I miss very, very much!
