1. Introduction
Hi,
My name is Paula
Kirkpatrick.
2. Maine
I live in Eddington,
Maine, but during
the summer, I
spend a lot of time
hiking at Mount
Katahdin.
3. Where/What do you teach?
Well. . . . I'm a school social
worker at Somerset Valley
Middle School in Hartland,
ME. Even though I don't
teach a class, I work with
small groups of students on
a variety of issues. Most of
my students struggle with
some sort of learning
difficulties—especially in the
areas of reading and writing.
4. Where am I?
This is my second
course in the
program, and I
have to admit that
I'm having a great
time!
5. Hobbies, fun things?
I'm a mom, a social worker, and
a student so there's not a whole
lot of free time for fun stuff.. . .
My daughter is on a Y
gymnastics team, right now, I
spend a lot of time watching her
practice!
When I'm not at school, work,
or sitting on the bleachers at
the gym (LOL), I like to knit,
bake, and play with my camera.
