What happened to Mrs. Barnard's Classroom Launcher?

Fall 2002-2004 - For two school years, I was the Science/Technology Integration Specialist & Webmaster at an incredible new school in my district, Pioneer Elementary.

Fall 2004 - I missed being in the classroom and had the opportunity to join an incredible team at fourth grade. Working closely as a team, Suzie Chandler, Becky Jensen, Kathy Shoemaker and I share instructional responsibilities for all students in the Pioneer Elementary Fourth Grade. We teach a dynamic standards-based integrated program richly enhanced by our individual talents. Join us, above, for a pictorial review of our program throughout the years.

Above are links to our current program. Below you will find links to my previous jobs as Science/Technology Specialist at Pioneer (2002-04) as well as my 3rd/4th grade classrooms at Eagle Creek (1998-2002). You may locate
