Sarah's relationship with writing is a love/hate relationship; she would love to write her own book one day, but just hasn't had the time. Her biggest frustration with writing is the difficulty in engaging students in the writing process because they see it as such a chore.

Sarah's dad is her writing mentor; he's written several books of his own!! She enjoys reading any kind of author, but especially loves fantasy, science fiction, and fiction, and is partial to trying to find material her students will enjoy. || rss url="http://www.google.com/reader/shared/user%2F15971191477340984756%2Flabel%2FBullying%20project?hl=en" link="true" description="true" length="250" number="3" date="true" author="true" || Links to my Courses:
