About Me

Hello! 
I'm Gladis Salinas. Studying Special Education and my endorsements in Cognitive Impairments and Emotional Impairments at Grand Valley State University. Fall '15 semester, I was at Grand Haven High school teaching assisting, which I loved. This Winer '16 semester, I have started Student Teacher a 1st grade CI classroom at East Leonard Elementary (from GRPS)
My ideal classroom would be working with middle schoolers or up, especially high schoolers.

My idea/plan on using technology is so I can place homework/assignments on my website. If students were missing or just need additional more resource, they can go to my website and check it out.

Besides my family and friends, Mindy Kaling is important to me. I like how she's not afraid to be herself, to be funny and awesome. She's one that taught me to be confident, and if not, just to pretend that I am confident in what I'm doing.

I also think, that it is important to travel. I don't want to live a "boring" life. Being adventures is something that we all need.










Well, That's ME! :)
