About me

Hi, all!

My name is Danielle. I am a senior at UNCW studying Elementary Education. Even though I am a senior I still have 3 semester left until graduation. This is my 3rd year at UNCW, as I first went to a community college in Kirkland, Ohio before moving to North Carolina and transferring to UNCW. 

I live in Sneads Ferry and  have for a little over 2 years now. I moved here to be closer to my sister and at the time just nephews and to help her out since her husband is in the marines and always gone. I am orginally from a VERY small town about an hour east of Cleveland. I spent alot of time in Downtown cleveland going to Indians and Cavs games, and miss being able to go whenever I wanted to!

Aside from being a full time student I work full time also. I work part time as a nanny to two of the sweetest kids, Olivia (5) and Max (1), the other half of the time I work as an office manager for their parents Masonry company and I LOVE both of my jobs. When not working I spend time with my boyfriend, and family. I love spending time with my 2 nephews and niece. They are just the sweetest. I also sell Scentsy so that takes up a good part of my time. I also enjoy working out and laying by the pool reading at my apartment complex. haha

I think that pretty much says everything about me that I can think of. I'll add some pictures of my cute niece and nephews because they are just too cute not to share :)

I hope everyone has a great semester! I look forward to "meeting" all of you! Best of luck!

Module Eleven

Pentomino Activities Before going on the website to do this activities I thought they were going to be super easy. Boy was I wrong. It took me multiple tries to figure out 1 way to get them to work on the easy level. I tried multiple times for a good 10 minutes on the medium level. I even asked my boyfriend to come try and he also had a hard time and ending up giving up after a couple tries. This made me feel a little better about not being able to figure it out. haha One thing I did notice doing this activity was that if i was able to use certain pentominos more then once it would be a lot easier to do. But that isn't the case. I tried the hard one once just to see what it looked like and as you can guess I was unable to figure it out. I became very frustrated with the petomino spatial activities as I tried several times and just couldn't figure it out. I feel like if it is hard for me how can I expect my elementary students to be able to do it. If I had them do activities ...

Module Seven

Textbook Reading What are the advantages of having students conduct experiments even before they attempt to figure out a theoretical probability? The advantages of having students conduct experiments before they attempt to figure out theoretical probability is they are able to make their own predictions. They then use their predictions to try and make connections about what might happen. Go to the Illuminations website and explore one of the virtual experiments. List the title and describe the experiment that you explored and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of virtual experiments. (http://illuminations.nctm.org/ and use the search site: probability and check interactives)  The title of the virtual experiment I explored was Adjustable Spinner. The virtual spinner was actually really cool. It allowed you to pick how big you wanted each part of the spinner. You got to choose how many times you spun the spinner. Each time you spun the spinner it changed both th...
