Hello to all! Welcome to my blog, An Apple for Mrs. J. My name is Jennifer Garrard. Currently, I am a senior block elementary education student at MUW in Columbus, Ms. I am married with one daughter. I anticipate graduating December 2015 with a bachelors degree in elementary education and certifications in history and science. After graduation, I want to continue my education and become certified in english, health and possibly special/gifted education. My dream classroom would be early elementary, Pre-K to 1st grade!
I really believe I have found my calling in life and God has crafted me to become a successful teacher. I have a strong foundation in my faith and am a Christian. I believe in hands-on, constructivist style learning. I want to instill in my students that learning is fun and they can achieve any goal with hard work and confidence! I am beyond thrilled to chase my dream and cannot wait to get my own classroom!

  1. Hello Jennifer,
    You have a beautiful family and sound very enthusiastic about teaching. It is great to know that you have found your calling and when something is your calling you tend to do a great job at it!! I know teaching is my calling as well and can't wait to get my own classroom after graduation in December. I to think hands on learning is very important and plan to use this technique in my classroom every chance possible.
