Welcome
to the Wild
Designed by Mae C. Roquemore
I
received my Art
Education Degree from Valdosta State
University in 2005 and returned in 2009 for certification in Early Childhood Education.
I have worked as a temporary Art Teacher, then later as a finishing
artist of wildlife. My work involved scenery and animal finishing,
which drew heavily on my art background. I loved it, but all along I
missed the classroom and the day-to-day interaction with students. As
an artist, I could make little real difference in anyone's life. As a
teacher, I feel that I can do much more, and what I do will be more
meaningful. So I came back, bringing animals with me!
The
animal pictures on this page are from exZOOberance.com, which has
both general viewing pictures of all types of animals (terrific for
kids) and free pictures you can download for illustrations, etc. It's
also really fun for adults to look at! Also included for teachers are
links for busy teachers
who could use help with lesson plans and activities and teachers whose
students need math or
reading help. For student activities, scroll down to the Student
Resource table, or click here.
Information Table
Below
are student-oriented sites with educational games and activities. Some
of them offer tutorials in more than one subject, so if you don't see
the subject right away, click on the appropriate grade level, and you
should find what you need. I personally found Kidport and Kidsknowit
(parent site of kidspast) to be especially good. If you wish to contact
me, please click on the email address or icon at the bottom of the
page. Enjoy!
