Hello, my name is Heather Yamamoto! I have a multiple subject credential and am currently substituting in two school districts in Southern California. I have never created a wiki before and the only one I've ever used is Wikipedia. So far, it seems pretty &quot;user friendly&quot; and I'm excited to create this with my fellow group members. 
 
Hello! My name is Ashley Sroczynski and I am an Early Childhood Intervention Specialist. I teach 3-5 year olds who are on IEPs and 3-5 year olds who are not on IEPs. Currently my IEP caseload includes a child who is blind, a child who has cerebral palsy, a few children with speech issues, a child who is select mute, two children with down syndrome, etc. It is definitely a &quot;hopping&quot; place in my classroom and I absolutely love it! My contact information: <a class="wiki_link_ext" href="mailto:ashley.sroczynski@waldenu.edu" rel="nofollow">ashley.sroczynski@waldenu.edu</a> and I live in the eastern time zone (Ohio). 
 
Hi! From cold Washington state. My name is Nancy White-Hursh and I am currently a substitute teacher with a past history of classroom reading speicalist. Most of my experience has been with middle school age students. I was a para educator for 18 years where I worked with students of very diverse abilities but all were on IEP's . I grew up in what seems now to be the &quot;stone age&quot; and technology is a skill I am acquiring slowly. My time zone is Pacific.
