Meet The Teacher Blogger Linky


Hey everyone! I'm Traci from "The Bender Bunch" blog. I am a special education teacher and am going into my 7th year of teaching! I have a dual degree, but special Ed is where my heart is! I teach at a small rural school just 2 minutes from my house and teach self-contained students with various disabilities in grades 1-5.

I am originally a southern North Carolina girl, but now call my home Nevada and I love it!

I am married to my BF and the most wonderful man in the world! We have been together for 20 years! We are inseparable and have lots of fun together!  

The two of us being crazy in Vegas last month!
We have a son (17) and a daughter (19), that we are both hoping to find their way out of the house very very soon love very much!


And I can't forget this face! Our 150 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback mix!


 THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS...

Coffee. Reeces PB Cups. Sweats. Music. Concerts. Vegas. Fremont Street. Beach. Camping. Chevron. Bright colors. Teal & Turquoise. Blogging. Cute containers. School supplies. Captain Morgan. 


 IF YOU WEREN'T A TEACHER, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO BE?
I'd love to be a Behavior Mentor or even a Special Education Facilitator or Director someday!

I LOVE reading your comments, and replying! But the only way you'll get my reply is if you are a blogger and have that set up on your Blogger account, or if you come back to your comment to see if I've replied,(which is unlikely to happen). So please leave your email when you comment so that I can be sure you get my response!
