5th Grade – Dani Beck

Why I Love to Teach

No two days are ever alike, students are the BEST to work with, and it is amazing all the opportunities that life can bring when people have a good education. I am all for people having more options in life so they can choose to do what they love and are passionate about:)

My Favorites

• Season: Fall
• Food: I like all good food, I am a terrible cook
• Color: Purple and Red
• Animal: Sharks!! Wobbegong, Epaulette & Puffadder Shyshark
• Subject: All of them! They are all interconnected, but I do especially love messy science, math, and art
• Book: Wednesday Wars, True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle, So Far From the Bamboo Grove, and Matilda are all books that I have read at least a half a dozen times…and there are lots more really good books 🙂

About Me

I like sharks, puzzles, drawing, listening to music, and most of all- getting to spend every day with such amazing students!

Fun Fact

I have a cat who acts more like a dog – he drools when he is happy, follows his human around, comes when called, likes to lick people, loves being pet, and gets jealous of inanimate objects that are occupying his human’s attention-lol!

My Hero

I’m Christian, so that definitely affects who my hero is, but if we are going for a secular person…it would be Bernie Webber and Ray Sybert from the 1950’s Coast Guard rescue.
